[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1720142, member: 40587"] I have been watching auctions online today, mostly 1 in Missouri and 1 in Oklahoma. 2 Corr cows in Missouri, average weight 603lbs, just brought $1.31! Granted they were solid black, but damn!! Next were 4 black steers, they announced were long-timed weaned, wormed and had two rounds of shots, averaging 598lbs brought $1.42. Flipped over to Oklahoma, and saw 6 black and black baldy heifers, average weight 663 pounds, 2 rounds of vaccinations, bring $1.36. Just saw 2 Holstein steers that averaged 703 lbs ( skin and bones, should have weighed 800 or more) in Arkansas sell. When I signed in auctioneer was at 56, and finally got to 63 when he said sold. I just assumed it was .63 cents/lb. NO! They brought $1.63!!! Man, if there was a way to " Beam them up, Scotty) like they did on Star Trek, you could make a fortune buying at 1 sale and selling them at another.! [/QUOTE]
