I buy a good many cattle straight off the farm and it has always been a tough business, most people I deal with want cash money only which can get tricky at tax time and probably 70% of people are worried to death they got a nickel per head less than they would have elsewhere. There are always a lot of deals you just have to walk away from because people will not educate themselves to the actual market and be reasonable, they only know that so and so told them what he got at the sale barn although so and so may have better cattle or is exaggerating.

In a few more months I might be glad I could not get many bought.
