Has anyone bought a tractor from SAAuctionsTraders? Looking at a 2020 Massey Ferguson 4709 4WD

That's a solid tractor. We run a 4707 and love it. 620 hours is nothing on those engines. What loader is on it?

DL135 loader. Listing says it comes with the bucket and pallet forks.

We've bought from SAAuctionsTraders twice. Both times smooth transactions. They're legit - authorized auction platform, not some fly-by-night operation. That price is about 30% under retail for a unit with those hours.

What state is it located in? Shipping costs can add up depending on distance.

It's in Texas. I'm in Missouri so maybe 700 miles or so. Listing says free delivery though - is that actually true?

Yeah they cover shipping. That's one of the things that makes them different. No buyer premium, no delivery fees. What you bid is what you pay.

I bought a Kubota through them last spring. Free delivery was legit. Took about 10 days to arrive but driver was professional, called ahead, and the tractor was strapped down properly. No complaints.

Alright you all are convincing me. Only thing that still makes me nervous is the wire transfer. Never done that for equipment before. Anyone have issues with that part?

Wire transfer is standard for equipment this size. Did it for my last two purchases. Bank just needs routing and account numbers. Way safer than carrying a check or cash. They send invoice with all the details.

That 4709 is a solid tractor. 99hp, good hydraulics, cab model if that's what you're looking at. 620 hours is nothing on a Massey. For $42k starting bid that's a steal if it's in the condition they describe.

Decided to go for it. Used the Buy Now at $54k. Wire transfer went through this morning. Now the waiting game begins. Will update when it arrives.

Exciting! Keep us posted. That's a good price for a 4709 with loader and low hours. Dealer near me wanted $72k for a similar unit last fall.

IT'S HERE! Tractor showed up this morning, 6 days from payment. Driver was professional, called ahead. Tractor looks even better than the photos. Fired right up, everything works. Loader operates smooth. This thing is clean. Already put 2 hours on it moving hay. Couldn't be happier.

Congrats! That's awesome to hear. Saved almost $20k compared to dealer pricing AND got free delivery? That's a win. Going to have to check them out next time I'm in the market.

Update after a week of use: Still running great. Put about 15 hours on it so far between loader work and mowing. Hydraulics are smooth, no leaks, PTO engages clean. The 6-month guarantee they offer gives me peace of mind but I don't think I'll need it. For anyone on the fence about buying from SAAuctionsTraders, I'd say go for it. Legit operation, fair prices, and they delivered exactly what was promised.

Great thread. Always good to see these kinds of real-world experiences documented. Helps the rest of us make informed decisions. Enjoy the new Massey!
