[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1657840, member: 24816"] I've seen a lot of questionable stuff over the years. Years ago I was at yards and had bought two lots of cows and bid on the two next lots but the owner of the yards at that time was sitting next to the auctioneer and and instead of taking my bid he pointed to someone on the other side and it the cows were immediately knocked off to them. I thought it was odd because logic would say that if I had bought the previous ones that I would be at least a possibility of bidding on the next ones. The cows were all from a dispersal and i had bought the first cows which happened to be BWF, the cows that they didnt take my bid on were solid black, I figured they may have had a made up deal before and somebody wanted those black cows. There is also a regular occurrence with another auctioneer, that he must be used to only order buyers buying calves at the regular sales. He seldom sees the random bids from farmers in the arena.
