It's been two weeks since the auction and still "TBA" in the auction report. I need Nancy to lecture me again about having patience.

Carl, castor prices are posted.

Yep, posted TBA.

I'm seeing the prices listed?

You are?

I just checked and it says TBA.

Carl - hit the refresh button. That should fix it. If that doesn’t do it, reboot your computer. If that doesn’t work, you are SOL. !!!!

So you're saying there are castor numbers?

Yep... that is what I see.

Would I lie to you?

Is Grade 2 to expensive for lure but not of quality for other uses? I see it didn't sell.

As of this morning without refreshing or re-booting I finally see the same screen you guys are seeing. Must take longer to get to Oregon.

When the demand is low the number 2 will sit for a while. FHA values it pretty high. It also is mainly what FHA has to offer. The number 1 is always preferred and since there isn't that much of it there are always one or two buyers that will take it all. The number 3 is bargain priced and will usually find buyers.

Problem is, you have to subtract shrinkage and commission for final price. That number is usually 30%.

My last shrinkage came in at approximately 18%. (Last year). The lowest it had ever been.

Only western castor on the sale?

Nope. It shows western and #1 selling as well as #3. I can almost guarantee that there is very little of the western select offered. Wish they would tell us how much. Never do.
