Wright Marshall difficulties ??

Dealers owing massive amounts..... they’re who are ballsing the job up.
And those farmers standing behind dealers around the ring begging dealers to buy certain cows for them pee me off.
Not specifically at Beeston but at most places round here
 
Why don't auctioneers learn not to take bids from dealers or farmers who haven't paid up their account ? No sympathy with the auctioneers. They are quite happy to use dealers to drive up prices and make their averages look good.
All about getting that £2k on their market report it seems
 
There is Market Drayton some 16 or so miles away and Shrewsbury a bit further on . Oswestry
But further north of there no so sure whats on offer - Chelford

The dairy sellers moved from Mkt Drayton a few months ago ,and landed up at Beeston ,although I was told they originally had planned to go to Shrewsbury from Drayton. That was allegedley down to buyers not stumping up in time !
 
sounds like every farmer really needs to pay their local market

There’s a very strange arrangement which goes on with regular buyers.
They buy cattle, but don’t pay.
When they sell these cattle through the market, the payout is profit less original cost plus interest.

But no one seems to have factored in a loss rather than a profit.
