[QUOTE="James, post: 11424, member: 212"] Sheezzz…. You fellahs need to go for a loooong bike ride. Takes a crooked road to straighten the head and put the world into perspective. My advice to young fellah is that if yer heart is set and you are keen … give her a go. Rules of engagement for business has always been…’Buy low…. Work hard…. ‘And prepare to be surprised. From what I hear , hive prices in NZ are at rock bottom. When I read an email from Airborne talking oversupply and a price drop of 12% …. Some one is pulling someone’s chain. Here in the middle of the Prairies the flow is over. One semi load of heavy honey drums has headed south, withmore to go. Sold, hot out of the extractor. And guess what, ‘Old Mate’ has recieved the highest price in years for his product. Those beekeepers who had live bees in the spring have done alright. So, my question is… why are NZ packers talking the price down….. Therebis nobetter time to enter the industry…. So having said that, like the Snow goose, it’s probably time I headed south too!
