2021 Augusta County 4-H & FFA Market Animal Sale ONLINE BUYER INFORMATION If you are purchasing an animal online for a business you are going to put the business name in the First Name Box and then you are going to put the contact persons name in the Last Name box. If you wish to bid for multiple businesses, you must register EACH business separately. You will only be able to purchase an animal with ONE bidder account at a time. Multiple online registered bidder numbers cannot be combined to purchase a single animal. Only ONE buyer name will be announced. If you wish to bid with several bidder numbers, please come to bid in-person. Animals are sold BY THE POUND. However, you will see all sale prices online as hundredweights. Example: You hear the auctioneer selling a hog for $2.25/lb. On your screen, it will show up as $225. You are NOT purchasing that animal for that amount. In reality, it means the price is $2.25/lb. In Person Price $2.25/lb...............Online Price You Will View $225 In Person Price $6.75/lb...............Online Price You Will View $675 In Person Price $12.50/lb..........Online Price You Will View $1,250 If an animal is bought online a Market Animal Show Representative will call you to find out the destination of the animal. It is very important that you make sure the phone number is correct when you register, because that will be the number we call for any online purchases. If the buyer is not reached the animal will be FLOORED. YOU MUST have already made a pre-appointment with a slaughter/processing facility. We will verify your reservations to our records to ensure you are on the correct slaughter/processing facility list. If you are not, you will have to take the animal home or sell back to the floor. The online auction is real time and the auctioneers receive the online bid less than a one second delay. You do not have to bid 5 minutes in advance, you can bid real time with the sale. However, there is a "Maxbid" feature where you can enter the highest amount you wish pay and the computer will bid on your behalf up to that amount but not over. This feature is nice if you wish to support an individual but cannot be by the screen the entire time. Please make checks payable to Rockingham Livestock. Buyers are NOT to directly pay the youth exhibitors. Buyers must pick up their sale bills the day of the sale in person or notify the MAS Board of their intentions to pay. Sale starts at 10:00am on Saturday May 1, 2021.
