    CWB Extends pool

    So if the CWB was so popular would they not be full by now.
    Seems like no of the supporters with big mouths are stepping up
    to the plate to support this monolithic agency. Seems like the
    last time they had technical issues allowing for an extended
    sign up period;ie no one signed up so technical issues was an excuse to extend with out admitting to reality.

    Come on willy and burpbert, support your friends on main by signing up you grain. Or have you come to the realization they
    never have and never will get an average return, let alone top
    dollar. Show us that the majority support the CWB with your
    grain instead of a ballot. I guess dead farmers cant deliver
    grain can they.

    Sorry Wheatking you're wrong. You are under the impression that the CWB supporters grow grain. I think the either retired years ago (and may have a bin bottom left over) or were CWB employees killing time here.

    Either way the CWB doesn't have active farmer support. Never did.

      Why would anyone support the Ritz Board?

        Agstar, It was always the Ritz Board or the Strahl Board or the Goodall Board or the Easter Board and so on and son on. It was never your or mine, and if you believe it was can I sell you some air?

            Wheatking,
            No offense but you must be a wee tiny boy in
            diapers yet. That post of yours shows signs of
            stupidity, I must say. I thought I would maybe
            give the CWB a little benefit of the doubt and
            sign up a load or two. BUT who in there right
            mind would sign a contract when some of
            these elevators can't tell you F all. The famous
            Pioneer in our area will not even give you a
            price for the handling of cwb grain.They say
            they do not know yet. Vittera, well they will
            give you a price but just do not know when
            they will take it. So wheatking i would suggest
            that you do a little homework first before you
            embarrass yourself again.

              You obviously are not the smartest so I will try to make my point
              clearer and explain it in simpler terms for you. I am not embarrassed at all by what said. If the board was all they made
              themselves to be, they would be able to give the elevators a
              premium for handling their grain(which they did for decades) at
              the same time guaranteeing themselves a hefty profit, while being
              able to offer the farmer a premium to the world and local price,
              since they are the supposed experts. You see they always
              guaranteed two of these things in the past, but the farmer always
              got the short end of the stick, and never got paid until after
              everyone else in line.

              If people where signing up in droves as should be the case since
              according to the supporters they where the majority, the elevators
              would be able to guarantee movement, and give you a price. But
              hence no one is signing up, therefore they cant even get a half a
              dozen cars together to ship on a regular basis let alone a train
              load. Not many elevators are not going to want to handle your
              grain when it will only be a hassle, in handling and keeping it separate.

              You can call it gloating if you like but I had to live under the
              boards thumb for decades, with no alternative. Now that I have an
              alternative you are not happy that I may get a leg up on you
              marketing wise.

                Wheatking you believe what you want, i dont
                care. I have sold a small amount of wheat for
                9.07 in my pocket a while back, so i doubt you
                are too far up on me. The half a dozen cars, your
                did you pull that figure from????

                  I have a story, and it is not just a stroy it is trueth. Just happened. A lady friend asked me to go to saskatoon to test drive a hyundai car. Turns out she actually bought the car and still thought she wanted me to test drive and we did and I got her to drive also so she can compare to her car she has. This is just an example of when we give someone complete controle or let them do what ever. This lady is Philipine and she don't like to rock the boat so to say, and her and her friends were dealing at this dealership in Saskatoon so she decides to want this vehicle its at Lloyd. They actally charge her 400 dollars to bring it to Saskatoon and make paper work that she bought it. So I come in the picture, I see every two weeks she makes a payment of 210 dollars. OK fine so how do we come to that? Shit ****ing hits the fan, what seemed like a simple question turned out to be a 3 hour ordeal. Eyes rolling and heads looking over top of cubicles. I was almost holding back my laugh. Trying hard not to laugh. Cause 1 hour before I phoned Hyundai in Regina and asked price of vehicle in which my friend did not. So I got the low down. All is can say compitition is good. The care got sold for less. The manufacturer made the same. The salesman got maybe 2000 in commision istead of 6000. I still don't think I am done with these guys as she still paid msrp but may have gotten jipped on the 2500 factory rebait. We came back to Humboldt and I completed the purchase of a 2013 gmc and she was so surprised at how they actually answrer questions so easily instead of throwing fits and rolling eyes and standing up in cubicles. lol.

                    I saved this lady 3000 dollars today and I and she will likely never go back to this dealership.

                      Not likely in our lifetime. As I am not done with them is another story. They actually give me a privacy excuse which I am sure works against them. Not done with them.

                        As such things happened today the Stupid Hyundai dealer did not even ask if we wanted insurance on our loan which is most likely a must for a dealer to do. They never did. I was offered ins at the gm dealer and for good reason declined it cause of cost. So Ok I am thinking since we did not insure the loan of .99 percent for 84 months stupid rediculous length. That there should have been a requirement for ins. but nothing said, So at the same time there was factory 0 percent or 2500 cash back that the saleman also did not explain to her before hand. not done

                          there is some reasons a hyundai is cheaper than Ford GM or Dodge. For one their Road side assistance you must be within 150 km of Saskatoon dealer. The rest manufacturers is all of north america, Hyundai is 5 year 100,000 k bumper to bumper. I have my doubts about that one, never seen the paper work. Never actually seen the paper work on the warrantee. So not good sign.
