[QUOTE="crossbreed, post: 1811913, member: 41765"] If you go back to Decatur and watch again IMO you will likely see the sale barn workers have a lot of influence on the sales. They haul for locals, buy for locals and even go work calves during the week while still being employed by the barn. In Gainesville I’m told the barn itself buys a lot themselves and they go quick. A man I know is a broker of sorts in OKC who works with other brokers to arrange shipping to OKC, pairs up like animals and gets the top dollars while charging a commission. This sounds like the best way if the commission doesn’t eat up your profit. I used to enjoy going to Bowie tx sale barn to watch and have a burger. More laid back, no idea if you came out better [/QUOTE]
