How do I protect myself when purchasing a compact #7696596 10/20/22 01:39 PM 10/20/22 01:39 PM

The tractor is a 2022 with only .5 hours. My concern is how do I protect myself that I am not buying something that has a lien on it and that I get ownership of it after I pay for it? The person that has this tractor is a farmer and also has other equipment for sale. He also has a business name but he is not a franchised JD dealer. I have not asked him how it is that he has a new tractor from JD with only .5 hours. I just don’t want to pay for this and a few weeks down the road have someone pull into my place and load it up because of a lien or some other problem.

Ask the seller outright where it came from and check that out. "Skin that smokewagon and see what happens"

They will run the numbers for you and know if there was a loan Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)
