[QUOTE="preston39, post: 146722, member: 1487"] base....., I do not like to sell a good genetic bull at the sale barn and never have. We have private treaty sales 2 years out with deposits. If the buyer decides at the last minute that he doesn't want the bull we gladly refund the money no questions asked. Generally we have a back-up waiting list currently standing at five. If you look around you I bet you will find commercial herdsmen in your area looking for a good bull. Private treaty is more rewarding for both the buyer and seller. For the seller he can rely on seeing the bull in the normal environment and feels a little more secure in his purchase...depending on the attitude of the seller. Generally he will be able to see sire and dam or at least the dam. If he has a future problem of some kind he has a redress. I believe the seller can earn a few more dollars in the transaction and gain a prospective future customer. In most cases he can maintain a follow up for performance evaluation data because all sire uses are not recorded. Far from it. Many are never registered. Certs are only obtained in about one half of purchases and it doesn't seem that more that one half of them are ever filed. He can also follow up on any unusual problems and be available to help get them corrected for obvious reasons. We think it is a win win program. [/QUOTE]
