WA goat auction update - auction tonight
« on: January 26, 2014, 12:22:20 AM »
The tag opened at $10,000, final bid was $15,500. 

There was a statement made that it is a record price for the tag.  I didn't verify.

Great time had by all tonight.

Aaron Snyder is the main salesperson for Kifaru so probably payed for by a sponsor(s)
Kind of a "duh" statement though  :chuckle:

Anyone who knows James would agree with that statement. 

I highly doubt any of the funds for the tag came from a sponsor.

Correct he didn't buy the tag. I was referring to him wanting to go help the 2014 tag holding.
