The auction landscape is constantly evolving, and Pifers Auction is at the forefront with their revolutionary approach to equipment sales. Their recent conversion of the Upper Midwest sale from a timed online-only format to a live auction with simulcast bidding has proven extraordinarily successful, drawing over 1,600 registered bidders from across all 50 states and countries including Mexico and Peru.

This broadcast takes you behind the scenes of what makes a modern auction work in today's global marketplace. A Ditch Witch boring machine that sold for $127,500 exemplifies how specialized equipment can now reach buyers from coast to coast, while a matched pair of 2023 John Deere 8R410 tractors commanding $365,000 each demonstrates the continuing strength at the premium end of the market. Perhaps most impressive was a 2024 John Deere 335P track skid steer with just 275 hours bringing a record-breaking $94,000.

The wheel loader market has shown exceptional strength, with machines headed to buyers as far away as Peru. What makes the new auction format particularly valuable is its flexibility - sellers no longer need to transport large equipment to a central location, saving significantly on freight costs while still benefiting from competitive bidding. As regional manager Chris Baer explains, "Not everybody wants to bring their equipment in. Freight's expensive...so why can't we sell it there and have a live auction?"

After several years of equipment appreciation during the pandemic era, the market has now stabilized into a pattern of normal depreciation - yet remains remarkably strong. The gap between new and slightly-used equipment values continues to create opportunities for buyers and sellers alike. Whether you're looking to acquire premium farmland like the upcoming 839-acre property bordering Custer State Park (with views of Mount Rushmore) or planning to consign to their classic car auction in Bowman, Pifers continues to connect exceptional properties and equipment with the right buyers.
