WINNING BIDDERS HAVE OPTIONS!
1) KEEP THE ANIMAL: Winning bidder pays the entire amount as accepted by the auctioneer, which includes the Buy-Back price (packer price) and takes the animal home at the end of the fair.
Example:
Your Bid -$5,000
Buy-Back - $2,000
You Pay - $5,000
2) TAKE THE BUY BACK: Winning Bidder pays the difference between the accepted bid and the Buy-Back price.
Example:
Your Bid - $5,000
Buy-Back -$2,000
You Pay -$3,000 The packer pays for the buy-back price.
*Buy-Back is the pre-determined, fair market value that the meat packer pays for the animal.
YOU HAVE TWO WAYS TO GET INVOLVED!
1) BECOME A BUYER: Don't hesitate throw your hand up in the air until you hear the auctioneer say sold.
2) JOIN A SYNDICATION: Become part of the junior livestock sale by pooling your money with your friends or business associates and form a Syndication or join one of the existing Syndications. Contact any of the Sale Committee Members and they can help you get Syndicated.
HOW THE SALE WORKS!
On the last Friday of the Curry County Fair, the Junior Livestock Sale begins at 5:30 pm with Dinner served in the Curry Co. Events Center. Auction catalogs are handed out at the door with the sale order, so bidders can determine which animals they would like to bid on. The Auctioneer and his ring men will be placed through out the sale ring taking bids. Hold your hand up high when the animal you have chosen is in the sale ring. If you win the bid your name will be called by the Auctioneer or announcer. Sale helpers will assist you with the paperwork.
