Ritchie Bros Auctions

not many mainline dealers offer any warranty on second hand, if the do its a separate policy that you need to pay for.

case does , bought a used combine private , then bought 2 year power train warranty from redhead , melfort . $3800 I think , 400 hours . a new drop in engine for case combine is $55k . Hope I never need to buy one

warranty is a huge thing now GDR. 9630 jd tractor motor cost around $35000, newer models are now very close to $100000. That is a lot of risk when paying out $200000 at sale. You know where dealers go with their realremons right. 1 800 Ritchie Brothers

$4500 for 3 years extended warranty on 2 year old 4430 case sprayer. Didn't need it, sprayer is now leaving and getting another 2 year old model. First 1 was purchased privately. Purchased warranty from RME

Most times don’t need warranty but sure nice to have it if you have something major go wrong

You can buy extended warranty through Case on any used case agriculture Equipment no matter where you purchase it. It has to lower hours and I not sure how many years you can go back but think it’s 7 or more

On another note, a couple or three years ago, Ritchies Brothers were offering to sell warranty on fairly new units. Lasted one year and program was gone. Makes you wonder.

Any why do you think this is???

Warranty is the biggest money maker of anything that is manufactured. Ritchie's is only trying to get in on this. I cannot believe how many buy extended warranty on equipment and especially vehicles. Its an up front cost and a "fear" factor sales pitch. Then there is usually a deductible or a fight in the fine print saying its not included.

If the item is not built well enough to last its included warranty period then it shouldn't be purchased.
