[QUOTE="kjonesel, post: 879841, member: 16842"] The first thing to remember is that the sales barn are there to make money. If your animal sold for a lesser amount they lost money. If they lose you as a seller they lose money in the future. If you can make it without the sale barn you make their money. If they continue this way they will make no more money off anyone. Sometimes I can't figure sale barns out. In Louisville KY we had Bourbon Stock Yards it became all about the buyers and now there is nothing left except a housing project. We have a local sale barn that is owned by the producers and it is still operating and seems to be doing quite well. It seems to me some people who run the facilities are just stuck on stupid.
