[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1813319, member: 498"] Last night I was telling B about the prices I saw at the sale on Wednesday. A pen fo 500 pound steers brought $2.80. His reply was that his brother just sold some 500 pound steers on the video for $3.10. That is $150 a head more. It is not just putting together groups. It is putting that group where buyers will pay more. I know back up in Washington I put together enough for a semi load and shipped them over 200 miles to a sale that paid more. That more than paid for the trucking. And that semi cost less than 3 trailer loads would have cost to make the same trip. [/QUOTE]
