I was like,what the fek??🤣🤣🤣
The content on some of these so called ‘influencers’ is getting like desperation, nearly like the paparazzi to make content, but no real genuine content of interest, the amount of Pete marquises vids going around would put me off bidding for anything as you would be on TV, plus auctionmarts etc, lack of business privacy,

I was more put off from bidding by the fact that most of it was overpriced or shite, or both :facepalm:

I was asked by several people if I would go and film it before the sale but there was nothing that really stood out for me so I didn't bother. As you say, I must have seen half a dozen videos of the sale, most of them without much idea about what exactly was being sold...

Theres a youtube channel near me that seems to go to a farm sale each week 'to see whats stuffs making.'

I just can't see how it's a productive use of your time? The same farmers seem to be constantly moaning about the state of the job, loss of BPS etc, and yet they spend half their lives pissing about eating terrible burgers at auctions not buying anything.
