[QUOTE="Alberta farmer, post: 612190, member: 8978"] I buy most of my hay. I buy from the locals and I ask them what they want...I never try to beat them down. I just say yes or no. Last year one neighbor phoned me, told me he wanted $35 a bale. I said no I can't use it at that price. Another guy close by had his hay(700 bales) listed at $25 on an internet site. I phoned and said I'll take it all, went over and paid him, got it hauled home. This year the first guy called again and said he needed $28 a bale. I said that works for me, went over and paid him. This first guy pulled a fast one on me several years ago. We agreed on a price, I hauled it, then he put the price up. I hauled it back and never bought from him again for several years. Bought some hay from a woman once. Paid her up front. Before I could get it hauled home she sold about 20 bales(my hay) to a horse owner for $10 more a bale and then paid me back the lesser amount. I told her you sold my hay...she said she felt I hadn't paid her enough. She phones every year but I refuse to ever buy from her again. [/QUOTE]
