Not good Paul and thanks for the heads up. Goes without saying that people should verify the straw number with the sire and confirmed with the vet storing it BEFORE handing over money.
Used to be a time when you could trust people. Those days are sadly gone.

Unfortunately many dishonest ppl out there who would sell or do anything for a buck.
For mine if a stud master knowingly sells a batch of straws which is of poor quality & has resulted in lots of misses (almost 100%) but still trying to flog straws from that batch he is a low life scammer.
Ive had ppl tell me stories of such. They say when they questioned this stud master, he said as there was many (I mean MANY misses) he felt it was a matter of buyer beware.
Personally,I dont know how someone could take someones money in these circumstances & still mange to look at themselves the mirror. Its just not right.
