That would be a bargain compared to what it has sold for.

So if I'm reading this correctly the original buyer of the west side tag resold it at a $3500 loss? Was there a specific bull the original buyer intended to hunt that died or some other reason for the resale?

You're reading it correctly.
There was a reason for it. It was not a dead bull though. The original buyer can explain further if he wants.

He just didn't want me to get it >:( So he jacked it up over my budget and then sold it to someone else :chuckle: :chuckle:

Good cause and he made it interesting. More fun that way :tup:
