I had some hay advertized on craigslist, almost 1000 bales of horse hay. Had 1 gal come out, showed her a bale and she said she'd take 100, but when we started sending them down to her trailer, she started squaking and ended up leaving empty handed.
Fast Forward about 1 1/2 months, and I start emailing with a few more responses. 2 different groups come out. Sold 200 bales w/ delivery to someone on the other side of town, and another 500 bales w/ delivery to a retired couple almost 90 miles away- They moved from Colorado and brought 6 horses with them. Said she tried some hay from a few other people, but her horses hated it and she was getting desparate for some better stuff. I gave her a couple bales of all the different hay it'd take to fill her order, and she called back yesterday saying her horses loved it and she'd take it.
Have another gent coming out tonight looking for 60 bales...
Hope I've got enough left now. Sales picked up so quick and I don't have an exact count on what I've got... but I SHOULD have 800...
