[QUOTE="Anymulewilldo, post: 7798865, member: 144597"] Felt sorry for the vendors in Fort William today. Bad trade, the 2 big dealers and a big finisher who spat his dummy out about the lambs being too dear at the last sale (but he still filled a wagon and drag so they can’t have been that dear?) were elsewhere so lacking in volume buying power. I went in my lorry hoping too pick up 100-120, ended up with 400. Lambs would be back £5-£8 on last sale. Ewes started off alright, by the end folks were taking them home. And I can’t blame them. I’m not going too run myself the last £10 up too value. Ended up with polled lambs, top draw blackie lambs, tup lambs, older tups, cull ewes & ewe lambs. 🤷🏻♂️ Not sure WTF I’m going too do with them all yet but if I’d just bought my 120 and left the trade would really have hit the floor. Last store sheep sale of the season there so ended on a poor note unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
