Was that a good sale for longhorns or is that the usual price for them.

THat was a record breaking sale. This sale was put on as a Premier Sale if you will. Everyone was to get all dressed, black tie type event, mostly Horn people. If you averaged all sales together the average price would be around $1500-$2000.

Prices at the sales have been going up pretty good lately, especially b/c there are some new people with money getting into the Longhorn business.
