The underbidders were one of the competition pages, they are driving up the price of the “mythical” popular classic tractors like Fiat 110-90 and JD77/7810’s.

Are you at the sherry? There isn’t a farmer in the country with money these days.
The banks don’t want to know you and costs going through the roof. You’d want some sort of sideline bringing in €7/800 a week to put food on the table.
That tractor new was no more than €58k

Generally lads who are hobby farmers, construction operators etc.
You would have genuine speculators or collectors for those Older Counties etc
You don’t see lads buy at those prices to work the gear, that would be crazy.
That’s actually 38 years and 21,000 was a lot of spons in 1983.
