Larry Harsin's Life With Olivers:

"I was born and raised on a farm in South Central Iowa. My Dad bought his first Oliver in 1945 when I was 8 years old. We farmed with Olivers. I worked at Bailey Implement in Knoxville, IA from 1957 through 1960, Van Zee Implement in Pella, IA from 1960 through 1964, Spencer Steel Building and Supply (Oliver Dealer) in Spencer, IA from 1964 through 1967 and Ray's Farm Store in Estherville, IA from 1967 to 1969. I started farming with Olivers again in April, 1969. Oliver equipment is truly 'The Finest in Farm Machinery'." Larry Harsin

We have learned of a scam being perpetrated on individuals who are selling items on the Internet. The most recent scam deals with a person from outside the U.S. wanting to make a purchase from you. The buyer sends you a cashier's check worth more than you have asked for the item with the understanding that you will take your portion out of the check and return the balance to him. Many of these cashier's checks are forged and this doesn't show up right away. By the time it does prove to be a forgery, your money and/or the item you are selling are long gone. This is a well-documented scam. Seller beware!
