4020, I Recon We do things A H3LL of Differently Down here in Texas.
The Buyer works for, Get paid by, the Guys/Feedyards He Buys For! not the Seller!
H3LL It isn't Your place to give him anything!!!
Buyers sit on their Butt at the Salebarn, swat flys, Smoke Cigarets/Cigars, Cuss, Chew and Tell lies while buying cattle to filling Orders! in Semi size lots.
We DO NOT PAY or GIVE BUYERS ANYTHING! it is their Job to buy cattle!
My/Your job is to recognize the market, and raise cattle that the End Buyers want, Sooo... The Local Buyers will get in a bidding war with the fellow across the isle from!
Making just shy of $1000 on a 400wt calf IS your Reward! The Feedyards WILL tell the local buyer to pay Top $$$ for ANY calves that carry your Brands in the future, It Damm Sure happens just that way!

If you are selling Private Treaty in the country, taking a given price - a given %age pencil shrink on live wt on the truck, at the closest set of scales to your pens! Then maybe a thank you might be in order! But even then the Above description still applies!
Later,
John A.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
