Buyer demand on nice condition slightly older used combines has been very strong in 2018.
More solid proof today (November 2, 2018) on a farm retirement auction in east-central South Dakota where the 2009 model John Deere 9770 STS combine pictured below, with 1,797 engine hours, sold for $127,000 with no heads.
$127,000 is the highest auction sale price on a 2009 model John Deere 9770 STS combine sold without heads in 32 months. Had to go back to a March 4, 2016 farm auction in east-central North Dakota where a 2009 John Deere 9770 STS with 1,585 engine hours sold for $137,500.

As 2018 winds down I’m looking for this trend of strong buyer demand on nice condition slightly older used combines to continue on into early 2019, particularly on used combines that are pre Tier IV, like this 2009 model 9770.
The current Avg. Dealer Advertised Price on a 2009 model John Deere 9770 STS combine = $111,766. If you’re looking, here’s a link to (241) 9770’s for sale today: https://www.machinerypete.com/harvesting/combines/john-deere/9770-sts
