CEG

Jeff Martin Auctioneers were at their Brooklyn, Miss., facility on Friday, Aug. 16 and Saturday, Aug. 17. The ice-cold air conditioning in the main theatre area and the cooling trailers for ring 2 may have proven to be the MVP's of the day as temperatures hovered around the 100-degree mark.

Great crowds and strong bidding on the Internet made for a wildly successful auction with day one featuring a great lineup of yellow iron, aerials, mini/compact machines, backhoe loaders, road building machines, heavy duty trucks and trailers and much-much more. Day 2 featured farm tractors and equipment, pickup trucks, vehicles and related tools. CEG

A big package of Komatsu dozers made their way across the auction ramp throughout the day.

Ring 2 had some intense action as soon as the auctioning begun.

Like a pair of Swiss Army Knives, the Ditch Witch machine packs centered around the XT850 carrier machine in the line-up with attachments including a blade, bucket, mulcher, trencher and hydraulic hammer garnered a lot of attention.

Checking the fluids for any signs of potential engine issues on a Kubota KX080-3 mini-excavator is Justin McKinney of Coast Underground Construction, Moss Point, Miss.

A couple of independent contractors out at auction looking for machines and test operating a Takeuchi TB125 of interest are Ed Hodge (in cab) of Laurel, Miss., and William Grice of Brookhaven, Miss.

Dwayne Case (in cab), a farmer based in Brookhaven, Miss., and contractor David Mize from Natchez, Miss., had a couple of dozers they liked and planned to bid on at this sale.

Roger McCool (L) and Steve Minderlein of Lyle Machinery, the local Komatsu dealer, were out taking a look at a stout selection of Komatsu dozers and were monitoring the pricing as they rolled across the auction “block.”

Digging in to the inner workings of a Link-Belt 330LX hydraulic excavator is Greg Williams of Dirt Incorporated, Saucier, Miss.

Wendell Cain of Cain & Todd Equipment made the trek from Lilburn, Ga., to check out some machines to potentially add to his used equipment inventory, including this Cat 12H VHP motorgrader.

Looking over their auction catalogues and the machines on the auction yard are Dwayne Ellis (L) of Ellis Dozer Service, Seminary, Miss., and Pat Welborne of Welborne Inc., Petal, Miss.

Coming out to see the auction action on construction equipment sale day (L-R) are David Fisher, Caterpillar Financial Services, Hattiesburg, Miss.; Russell Miller, Miller Enterprises, Hattiesburg, Miss.; and Kyle Kimbrough, Puckett Machinery Cat, Hattiesburg, Miss., branch location.

A real nice selection of excavators were in this auction lineup.
