Shouldn't that be off topic "pictures and videos"?

This is a price tracker thread.
Full loads are
Wheat 90
Barley 105
Heard last night.
If that's 'all' straw is worth then it stays in my shed, again.
If we don't get a month of good rain then next summer will be drought again.
If we do get a month of good rain then spring will be late and I'll need it myself.
A businessman would sell the straw. A farmer keeps it just in case.

Auctioneer runs it to where the seller wants it to be with no one in then pretends it’s been passed out then tells every potential buyer it needs to be above the passed out price. Not saying it happens elsewhere but I’ve seen it done up here to perfection

Why should the seller not get the price he wants I suppose. But he may as well just advertise it at the desired price in the first place. Auctions are an odd creature.

I’m not saying it’s right or wrong. It’s a free country. It is however misleading when auction prices are quoted as passed out at a high figure when no one was in in the first place
