Fall 2017 – Red Hill Farms Sale Information
SALE PROCEDURES: We will conduct a “Farmers’ Auction” to sell each individual lot.
Cattle sell in catalog order. Each animal has a base price listed in the catalog. When it
is time to sell a particular animal, we will ask those interested to hold up their buyer
number. If only one number is in the air, the animal will be sold at the base price to that
individual. If there are multiple numbers in the air, we will gradually raise the price until
one number remains. If there is a tie (last two bidders drop out at the same time), the
bid is given to the buyer with the lower buyer number. The other bidder may raise the bid
by $250 if he wishes to stay in the auction. We intend for this to be a simple, low-pres-
sure sale for the benefi t of all involved.
