EBAY Blues

I finally found a parts manual for my 1950 Co-op #3. I was outbid by one dollar in the closing moments of bidding. Who would have thought that an obscure tractor manual would cause such a fuss? Usually, when I bid on stuff like this, there is little or no competition. Usually, it is just a manual that I am buying for fun....and not one I really need...that is almost impossible to find. I have contacted the buyer who outbid me to see if I can purchase it from him.
