When will I learn

[Bar Nuthin 3,465]

I saw this grader blade at online auction. When I saw it, there were still 17 days of bidding left, so I popped a $1 bid on in it just to get email updates on it.

I figured surely someone would bid on it. I was curious to see what one would bring at auction. Since it's 6 hours away from me, I really had no intention of buying it.

Cut to 6 hours left to go. I guess if I end up with it, a couple tanks of gas are worth it for a $1 grader blade

I need to learn to just add them to a watch list rather than bidding on them.

   They go for $ 250 or much more, you can break even on the cost for gas and have a nice trip looking at the autumn foliage along the way.

FYI - that is the later "push" style, meant to go on a C, 300, or 400 series long frame tractor - it may work on a short frame tractor with some work...

BUT, hey, for a Buck - how can you sleep at night???

My wife has been bugging me for a road trip to see autumn colors.

Could be a "two birds, one stone" scenario. (though, taking her anywhere exponentially raises the cost )

Looks like the C160 is best dressed for that!

I can’t believe that for one whole dollar it doesn’t come with the lift bar. What a rip off! 🤣🤣

Outbid but I wasn’t able to watch and see what it went for.
