1956 d6-9u

Hey there 22rimfire. I'm interested in your 1956 d6 9u. I have a 1953 and a 1957. I'm in South Texas. I'll offer you $1500. Get with me please to discuss this further. Thanks!

Just a bit low!!!
Scrap yard will pay $3000 for the weight.
:flypig:

I would recheck the weight of your machine there buddy!

So clearly you already think you know what it's worth, why are you wasting other people's time asking???? Wrong place to be if you're in it to make profit there mate.

Nothing wrong with wanting fair market price for your machine, but the "scrapyard will pay xxx" is a load of bull ****! Aside from the fact that most folks on here would get rather peeved at someone who sends a good machine to scrap simply for money, there's the fact that your price is completely disconnected from reality. That tractor is probably 12-15 tons with blade and all..... unless I'm much mistaken scrap is somewhere under $100/ton, possibly under $50. Not sure that would have been worth 3k for scrap even 5 years ago when the price was high...

Yeah you might want to get a current quote from the scrap yard, and then see if they'll haul it for free too.

Nice dozer.

First off I would never scrap it.
But $1500 for any good running piece of machinery is
Low for a lawn mower much less a D6.
Ill never give it away for sure.
The root rake is worth that alone.
I just thought someone on this forum may would appreciate
A quality machine in great shape.
Ill just sell it elsewhere.
Some dairy farmer around here will be glad to get it.
Thanks anyway

So what you really meant to ask is "What is the top price I can expect to screw someone into paying for this tractor because I'm all about $$$$"

Clearly you already have your mind made up you're in it for top price... why bother to ask? You're on a forum with a group of folks that are here because they love old machinery and are here to take care of each other.

Even if you felt $1500 was too low, there's no need to be insulting about it.

Hi, 22rimfire.
I hafta say that I am with Jaluhn here. Regardless of what the real/market value might be or what you can get somebody to pay for it, I thought your flying pig emoticon in your reply to Lady Cat Skinner was insulting. She made an offer and invited discussion. Your response struck me as being just plain rude.

Just my 0.02.
