Barely pay for the canvas at that price. For one side....

Pay $15k to rebuild header or head to town and spend $15k on down payment. Thats what its come to....

Don’t you wish it didn’t matter, the price of headers and parts?

Don’t you wish it didn’t matter, the price of headers and parts? The pathetic returns make this a big concern because farmers are price takers not price setters.

My biggest pet peeve is the shop supplies charge. Where does it end....

[Guest]

shop supply just another 10% tax , f#$king a#$holes should be ashamed of themselves
they wonder why we go elsewhere

[jazz]

Selling drugs or pimping hos has nothing on owning a dealership.

I don't think they should be surprised when people go to jobber parts where ever absolutely possible.

It pays to plan ahead. Parts through Shoup, Sloan express, Abilene Supply out of the US.

Hydraulic through hypower or another shop usually half or less.
