Well, it sucks you didn't get them, but that's not like a shill driving up the price. He has to pay that for them. When a dealer does that it probably means they are worth more. Where did the 'appraised value' come from?
3 different third party appraisers. One of which was John Deere themselves.
but I’m just gonna do what my grandfather would do, say screw it and take that money and buy better and newer. For what we would have had to pay, it was reaching the point a brand new tractor could be purchased.
