I'm a simple commercial breeder last 2 bulls cost £5500. Interested in one that is £7500 at the moment. Is that too much? Looks a bloody good bull to me.
As 'insurance' you could always jump him and freeze some semen. We had a guy do so and the cost was between £1-2/straw. Far cheaper than anything you could buy commercially and will sit in liquid nitrogen virtually forever.
