[QUOTE="Rafter S, post: 1368982, member: 21194"] Pricing them at sale barn price, as you did, saves you the hauling and the commission, but I wouldn't sell them for any less. Long before the 6th phone call I believe I'd have told him, firmly, that I'm not coming down and not to call back unless he's willing to pay my price. I had a guy come out a few years ago to look at a group of heifers I had for sale. I had given him a price per head if he took the whole bunch. They were pretty uniform, but of course some were a little bit better than the others. He pointed out one of the best ones and said "I wish they were all like that one." I replied "Me too. Then the price would be higher." He paid my price without any more discussion. [/QUOTE]
