[QUOTE="Grain Buyer, post: 3861178, member: 269"] I know malting barley tests can be a bit "subjective" at times. But it sounds like the situation got out of control quickly. Why was the buyer in your kitchen, was he summoned? You say your Dad hit the roof, and the rep swore. This sounds like both parties were at loggerheads with each other. You say the company wouldn't "Back Down", but without all the facts, could it not be possible the company had no reason to back down? 100K in the ag world could result in a margin, before costs of £1000, so might not be any fat left in the deal to pay you your loss. As my dear old friend Gordon English (anyone remember him?) used to say, "Don't fall out with folk, because you'll never be able to get even with them later", it's a good saying for farmers and merchants alike.
