Still Finding Good Deals on Ritchie Bros.?
Hey guys, been browsing Ritchie Bros auctions lately, and it actually feels like there are still some solid deals out there if you look closely.
I was checking a recent auction and saw a 72" skid steer hydraulic grapple bucket go for noticeably less than what similar ones are listed for on Facebook Marketplace around my area. It looked in decent shape, too, nothing fancy, but definitely usable. Made me think there's still real value out there, especially on attachments.
I also came across a blog story about a buyer who picked up attachments way cheaper than Marketplace prices and was really happy with it, which lines up with what I've been seeing.
Curious to hear from you all:
- Have you scored any good deals recently? What did you get?
- Are attachments like buckets, grapples, or forks where you're seeing the best value?
- Any tips for spotting the good ones before everyone else jumps in?
Feels like with a bit of patience and timing, you can still come out ahead. What's the best deal you've picked up lately?
