[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1662475, member: 498"] The rep you choose is very important. And it is your choice. I would look at all the reps in your expanded area. Look up who worked with him in the past and contact them. I sold a load through Western Video one time. Their rep came and videoed my cattle. As we walk back to the pickup I was telling him my minimum price. He said how about we save you the commission and the risk and I give you $xxx. That was $50 a head less than what I had just told him was my minimum. I should have walked away from him right there and called the office for Western. Later a good friend who plays at a much higher level in the cattle industry told me he wouldn't let that guy on his place. Live and learn. Some reps work for you and do their best to market your cattle. Others are working for themself. [/QUOTE]
