[QUOTE="Sir Loin, post: 431064, member: 5601"] TNMasterBeefProducer, Re: And that is as it should be, when you “actually” bring pre-conditioned calves to the sale. But you may still suffer because of those who do not bring “real” pre-conditioned calves to a pre-condition sale, especially if they commingle yours with others that are not pre-conditioned. Then there is the fact that buyers are human and if they drive 3 hours + to get to an advertised pre-conditioned sale and don’t see all pre-conditioned cattle, it sets their temperament for low bidding. Plus they may not even bother to come to the next pre sale, which then limits your potential buyers. It’s the old story of: “Don’t tick the fairy off” or you won’t get what you want. Re: Then they shouldn’t be allowed in at a advertised pre-condition sale, now should they? Re: Well, that’s good and the way it should be. But I would still dock all your cattle because they were in the same barn, or in the pen next to the CharX that was doing all the coughing. Re: Yes, you probably got top dollar for preconditioning, but did you get top dollar for a pre-conditioned calf. I think not. Re: First, we are talking about an advertised pre-conditioned sale, not their regular sale. Second, were you at this pre-conditioned sale? C. Exactly what “information” that I have given is “totally inaccurate”? SL [/QUOTE]
