    Went into a dealer in November to order a combine part,was quoted $1200.00 . Explained that I didn't need it for 10 months. With some negotiating got it for $700.00.

      I have old iron but I rarely bother calling a dealer anymore, changed rotor bearings last year , parts shop had 1 but had to go to dealer for the other and they were 40 dollars more. Also called local RME this fall at 8:03 am and got the after hours answering service. The guy on the phone said “oh the parts guys should get to their phones in about 15 minutes.” What a joke that place is.

        Really a well managed farm would have
        All parts bought 2 years in advance.

            And even the ones that don't break and are rarely in stock anywhere....just in case.

            Basically if you buy something you should buy 2 , so you have everything you need...thats good managing , right?

            Full sarcasm.

            I think I know where you are going with that comment...lmao.

                    I've got an old versatile with 4 Walmart batteries in it. Been starting good for 10 years at least.
