Matt Cotton's top five machinery sale results for 2024

With a vast array of equipment offered on the platform this year, it's been challenging trying to single out five of the top results. We have given it a go below:

First up is this great condition Coolamon 45 Ton Chaser bin from the Molloy clearing sale, Spencer & Bennet Yenda NSW:

The bin was hotly contested, with 47 bids being placed, and selling for $180k

Next up is this Carlton Draught sign, selling for $240. Great value for that buyer. This was amongst a number of great signs and Memorabilia listed by Northern Victoria Livestock:

This auction was part 1 of 6, so keep an eye out for the next instalment.

Moving back to farm machinery now, MCC Chudleigh Dobell listed this Goldacres sprayer in the Jones Darriwell unreserved Clearing Sale, Trundle NSW. A bidding war between on-site and online bidders ensued, seeing the item rise from $302,000, and eventually selling for $555,000. One online bidder just missed out with a bid of $550,000.

The Estate of Jeff Gooda, Yenda produced some fascinating machinery. This Fordson Major Crawler sold for $9,600, after receiving 560 unique views and 56 favourites.

The full catalogue is definitely worth a look: https://auctionsplus.com.au/auction-results/machinery/estate-of-jeff-gooda-clearing-sale/124380

This year's Queensland clearing sales were on another level, helped along as always by Andrew Kirtley and Roger Lyne at Eastern Rural Dalby.

The Rosslyn Plains clearing sale in Dalby produced a number of great results, and was one of our most viewed catalogues. Lot 1 below received over 200 bids, eventually selling for $226,000.

Thanks to all of our agents and their vendors for a fantastic year.
