[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2885910, member: 7999"] Last year and this year we were seeing buyer fatigue. As the auction wound down to the last kids they were having a tough time getting people to bid. Last year we bought the last animal into the ring. A very nice steer but nobody was bidding. We wound up bidding against ourselves to get the price higher. We were already over budget and had no intention of buying a steer. This year we bought the third hog the same way. Nobody would start the opening bid, do we did, thinking this would get others to bid. Nobody did. We were already over budget. I wish we could have been able to afford to pay more. I am sure other fairs need more buyers too. There is lots of people here that could afford to buy premium meat and write off the expense. I am hoping to touch some of you who have the means to do this and stay active in your community in a way that very beneficial to all of us. [/QUOTE]
