    I'd agree. Go to the mart. Any year I've sold out of the yard I always regretted it later, wondering if I got screwed. Always felt happier if i went to the mart sith them. At least in the mart you'll know the true value. You can always bring them home.

    Maybe none of the locals will sell to him for some reason.

    Going through our animals for the majority we pay more for private sales that we do in marts. You would think the opposite would be the case.
