[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 418277, member: 1683"] C HOLLAND and Brandonm2 also- I agree whole-heartedly with what both of you are saying. This quote "Poor structured bulls, questionable lineages, falsified data, ever changing breed standards, etc might explain why many commercial bull buyers are so reluctant to pay more for a herd bull than the price of two good commercial pairs." is very true - and the operable word in this entire functioning operation of "Sales". (BTW - that word is pronounced and spelled [b]SALES[/b] - like what propels "SAILboats" You don't go to a Cattle "SELL". Sorry - but that mispronuncition bugs the heck out of me!) Anyway - the problem which exists with a lot of businesses, and the Beef Cattle Business is not different than a lot of others, is '[b][i]LACK OF HONESTY![/i][/b]' Lack of INTEGRITY on the part of BOTH buyer and seller is another monkeywrench that is thrown into the mix! It is a shame that you can't LEGISLATE Truth and Integrity and Honesty. You have to just let the grinding gears and sawteeth of the business world chew the crooks up and spit them out. This whole scenario is another justified reason for LEARNING AND EDUCATION. Don't jump into something without knowing what you are doing! What goes around - Comes around! DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
