AndyB Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Maybe an obvious question, but why is it that the JD 8530 and 8430 precision prices have crashed recently? Surely there can't be sufficient around for folks to be effectively dumping them for less than £35 brand new? ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathan Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 just had a look at the wholesale price and all i will say its a big drop from what they were Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksp Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Maybe they will have all sold out when JD releasses their new 8RT (i think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegreen Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Undoubtedly John Deere are about too release its new 8000 series tractors and crawlers this summer in the states and in UK in the autumn and therefore new ertl replicas too. As KSP says they are getting rid of the old uns before the new stock arrives like any other business Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB Posted May 16, 2009 Author Share Posted May 16, 2009 Just a thought - with the 'prestiege' JD et al, does this spell the end for 1/32 precisions? I have now 'doubled up' on the 8000's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford 8830 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 just got two trade boxes one 8530 and one 8430!!!!! cannot let these go past without getting them at this price. £30.99 from martyns farm models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksp Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Sorry for going off-topic but heres JD press release from 2008. http://www.deere.com/en_US/newsroom/2008/releases/agriculture/08072008_eq_nameandnumber_release.html But i've just bought some 8530 from Towse and 'course im glad but it isnt the same to look on my 8530/8430 and then look at my JD 8400 when i know how difficult it is to get a 8400 and how easy (and cheap) it is getting a '30 series.

ploughmaster Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I would think the FW30 and MF1505 are possibly lined up for deletion from the range and have simply been 'remaindered' to clear the remaining stock. They probably want to clear the FW30 in particular before the newly tooled FW60 is released later in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughmaster Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 At the end of its production life, the 8400 was also remaindered and was available for under £50 (its normal selling price had been £75). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will also find the JD 7020 is in the same group as the FW and 1505 and orange bulk trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 'Ouch' if you bought one of these at full price, I thought they were being cheeky enough at the time with the later released dual wheel version. Seems to be a trend, the STXs and tracked JD had similar % drops, best make the most of it if you don't already own one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
