[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 731158, member: 1682"] Our local barn where I sell and buy my feeders is owned by the producers of our area (including myself) as members through our district/county association. We only sell about 5000 head a year in 4 sales. It's not so much about burning bridges. I talk honest, frank and firm and don't sell myself or anyone else short. Most understand and respect that. If there is a bridge selected for demolition, I let it be known. One neighbour wanted me to go on a tangent with it, but I didn't. I don't want to damage their sale's reputation. But I did buy these two calves with the knowledge they were steers and want there to be some accountability. Anyways, UPDATE: Talked to the sales manager and he was quite ashamed of the fact that these stags were sold as guaranteed steers and is going to make it right. I gave him some options and the one he chose was to have the vet cut both and send the sales barn the bill. He is going to contact the vet and arrange the agreement with him. :cowboy: [/QUOTE]
