[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1289445, member: 14585"] I agree IF... And IF my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. ;-) (no offence Bruce Jenner) I read cattle ads the way I read real estate listings. Charming = old/outdated. Cozy = Too small to keep a cat. ect. Purebred = NOT Registered. Angus = Black ect. A good crossbred cow is usually worth more to me than a good "purebred of unknown parentage." Most farmers do a poor job marketing. Many do a really poor job by not even trying to hit a buyer's Hot Buttons. No pictures or poor quality, distant photos or just pics of the cow's head and not of the business end. While I respect that a price was listed. All it tells me is what he wants and little about why I should pay it. I learned long ago, the easiest money I'll ever make (a penny saved is a penny earned) is by not paying the asking price, be it from a car dealer, on farm/business equipment or in private treaty sales.
