I've been bidding on an auction site and I just don't get it. Why would anyone bid for birds higher than what they could pay straight to the farm.
Case in point.
They've got posted chickens from Green Fire, but the bid is higher than if they ordered directly from Green Fire. What's up with that?
In one case? For the same amount as the highest bid (where it is when I dropped out) you could order two hens and a rooster. Why would you pay more? Quite honestly I kept increasing my bid to see just how far up it would go. I have the money of course, but I wanted to see just how far up this particular person would go to get these birds.
I tried researching the bidder to see what gives but couldn't really find out anything. I did find info on Federal funding but not sure how to take that or where to go with it. This has kinda soured me on Green Fire. Not cuz I blame them but why not just run your birds through the auction and make a killing? I've been saving money to order from them but this doesn't make sense. I thought I might be able to save some money and not have to order so many, but then I've had bigger disappointments.
