And that flood of lower quality animals at cheap price affects the attitudes of potential customers. Who then think that they shouldn't pay more than the average low ball price they see on lower quality animals for your Higher quality animals that you are asking a premium for.

I have experienced several of these people lately. They gave me total @@@@@@@ attitudes when I told them my animals were worth more to me than the low ball prices they offered.

LET ME TELL YOU, IT IS REALLY HARD NOT TO SNAP BACK AT THOSE KIND OF PEOPLE, AND JUST RESPOND AS POLITELY AS YOU CAN....
