Thinking of switching to the DARK SIDE
 

:Cub8:

Been following a e-bay listing for a few days now & thought of selling all my yellows to make up the price difference. I had my heart saddened when my top bid of $ 1,200.00 was lost & now in the $1,700.00 range. I thought that this was a tractor as a FANTASTIC item & would be the last one I would ever need.:bigthink:

Oh well, I just might find another one? :Cry1:

I EVEN had the wife's approval.:beerchug:

Nik,

Tractor I've been following;

Wonder what the final price will be?

Wow that's quite the find Nik. Low hours and all original everything, never had a deck mounted? That's an awesome tractor that was used for just snow removal but to each their own. That's the model that I put countless hours on in the late 80s that led me down the yellow fever path too. Whatever it goes for I would say it's worth it but I'm crazy too. I'm thinking 2750? Just a guess. Thanks for sharing, love seeing those.

When you said you were thinking of switching to the dark side, I thought you were talking about Jane Doe green. :bigeyes:

Nice 782! I figure it will come in at $2000 or under. Now if that were a 782D.........Look out! :biggrin2:

Sorry to hear it won't come home with ya Nik. Would've been a nice tractor.

Sorry to hear that, Nik.

I posted this one in the ebay section when it was at $100. I said my guess was $2500. There are apparently some collectors that $ is no object. Stinks you didn't get it, but I'm with you $1250 would have been my top bid if I was closer. A few people posted some chit chat that got deleted. They pointed out a few inconsistencies with some of the pics. Still looks like a nice one :BlahBlah:

Sorry that you can't bring it home Nik.
I am watching that one too, just to see what it brings. Shrewcub, I missed the "chit chat" but I noticed some inconsistencies too. Not really sure what the guy is trying to pull, but some of those pics are of a 782 with front remotes, and some of of a tractor without. May be better that you didn't get it Nik, as it may be a case of false advertising. :bigthink:

The seller addresses the inconsistencies with the photos in the 'questions' section of the auction listing.

I emailed the seller & he copied photo 's from a different site just to show what the wind- breaker would look like. He fully explained & was was sorry for any mis-leading info.

He was very prompt with the 3 question's I had .

NIK,

Ok. Well, good deal! Glad he isn't trying to rip anyone off! :beerchug:

Yikes----- $ 1805.00. +

And I thought I had a chance with my. $ 1,200.00 bid. :bash2:

NIK,
