very earlythis spring (March) i purchased a bull on an online sale hosted by cwcattlesales.com. I purchased the bull as a purebred AND registered maine anjou. I checked with the seller on shipping, (from nebraska to michigan), won the bid, sent in my check, got the receipt, and then called and called and called and left voicemail after voicemail until finally a whole week later he calls me back and has no clue who i am or cares. (argue) and then finally after 6 weeks YES SIX weeks of fighting tooth an nail to get the bull i finally get him to put the bull on a truck headed east that wont even come into michigan. So i drive down into indiana(5 hours each way) and meet the guy in the middle of the night and get the bull that has now been on the trailer for 4 days. get him home turn him out with the cows and let him do his cean up work. he is currently on lease to the neighbors for summer born calves, and i still dont have the papers on him. and yes i have been clling and calling and calling and leaving voicemail after voicemail and text after text for the last 6 months and all i keep getting is the same sob story that hes too busy but he will get it done. well im sorry but ive sent him the information 3 times and he still will not sit down for 2 minutes and fill out the form and send it in.
Im a firm beleiver that when you sell something you had better follow through with it. the shipping didnt cost him a dime so why couldnt he put him on the first 7 trucks coming my way half empty. the papers arent gonna cost him a dime so why cant he take 2 minutes after dinner and fill out the transfer for me?
basically if you want to sell cattle dont ever treat a customer this way because work will get out and the customer will tell his buddies, so this is me telling all of you on steer planet that I will NEVER do business with Tim Burke again!
