[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1796419, member: 25884"] Thanks, [USER=498]@Dave[/USER] ... Yes I realize it is not for "his cattle" specifically, but based on the nationwide price. I wasn't sure about the selling end... thinking maybe they had to be sold at a recognized place... but then, that's a dumb thought on my part... Sometimes I can wrap my head around a concept... and sometimes it just escapes my common sense. Your explanation made alot more sense to me.... My son is good friend's with this guy... and the guy that offered him the 2.15 has always been a good trusted buyer.... so i would think the contract was very good... I would have made the deal and been satisfied with a guaranteed price down the road... if it tanks he will really lose out... Like [USER=8993]@kenny thomas[/USER] .... sign it and be happy... trying to wring out the POSSIBILITY of more sometimes is greedy. Yes, we all want to top the sale so to speak... but making a decent amount is sometimes better than chasing the last penny... Another good point kenny made about the location of the animals vs the sale price... yes, here we often see a bit of a discount due to the trucking of animals to more distant feedout lots... Another reason to have made the agreement... especially with no commission costs and no drift loss... Oh well, we shall see.. [USER=498]@Dave[/USER], how do you get on a list like you mentioned about getting daily updates on things like that? I go on DVAuction often to check up on prices and all... [/QUOTE]
