[QUOTE="Hawk, post: 27246, member: 114"] Sale barns are the primary market place where ranchers in my area sale their annual calf crop and it's been that way for many years. With all due respect to those that like to say that you should never buy anything from a sale barn, that is where most of the cattle are sold. If you are convinced that sale barns are evil then you are depriving yourself of a viable market for you calves and for the purchase of replacement animals. I would be the first to admit that the principal of "buyer beware" is in full effect and you need to proceed with due diligence. Auctions are not for everyone and if you feel uncomfortable buying there, don't go. It does get a little tiresome that some of the more vocal regulars on this board keep spouting the same tired old line that sale barns are bad placed to buy or sell. If you don't like them, fine, but I wish you would quit insulting those of us who do and advising the beginners not to even visit them and make up their own minds. [/QUOTE]
