Default Which Major Auction Houses Accept Livestock as Payment?

We have some pigs we would like to turn into cardboard? Is their any auction house who can accommodate us?

In the auction world, pigs don't fly.

It's runaway inflation. I guess I would take pigs as payment. I'd have to flip them before I took possession. I guess it would depend on what card it was.

If I were running the AH, I’d take them, but charge a premium because I’ve still got to turn them around and turn them into sausage.

Some may have livestock bid.

Now, that I've thought of that, have to wonder who the FBI is keeping its eyes on at the National.

What's the centering on those Live Stock? Are we talking Vintage Jersey Cows? A Porky Pig Rookie? Need more specifics.

To answer the question literally, I believe you might be able to negotiate an advance on your livestock from this particular outfit.

Now you're just a money transfer away from buying that shiny new and freshly trimmed Wagner card.

Shaved sheep must qualify as trimmed with PSA and SGC.

I’ve long had a theory that various of the world leading religions have admonitions against eating pork for the simple reason that bacon is the tastiest most perfectly delicious food every discovered. If you want to test people, tell them no bacon. No admonition anywhere against eating kale or oatmeal.

Could sell them to a college student along with a keg of beer and do quite well selling tickets to a pig roast.

Now you're in my world! Strong genetics are worth more than much of the cardboard that is auctioned off. I've spent more on good genetics then I have a lifetime of cardboard.

Yes, a savvy auction house would take the hogs as payment and kill them to make various porcine cuts, including the slabs of bacon. HOWEVER, before marketing these they would have to be sent to Pork Slaughter Authentication to verify that their trimming was high quality.

The way some auction houses put such bull excrement in their descriptions and expected you to accept it as gospel I do believe they accept beeves (yes, it is the plural of beef). This is not directed at any particular auction house. I have bid on a total of two items ever in auctions by the well known auction houses. Won one, lost the other in the ridiculous extended bidding. Extremely rare that any of them would list something that I was even mildly interested in.
