Machinery Pete owner Greg Peterson says used machinery prices are incredibly strong, especially since the first week of November. “We’re seeing sales pick up through the end of the year. Generally speaking, it was a good year for income. What I’ve really seen is the return of the year-end tax buyer.” According to Peterson, buying interest is overwhelming at auctions. “It’s a force I haven’t seen before. It doesn’t matter where the sale is at, buyers are coming in aggressively.”
