[QUOTE="allisonr, post: 1322511, member: 24362"] We've only ever purchased one through an online auction. But we had went to the farm (it was nearby) and viewed her and others beforehand. I definitely prefer purchasing animals in person where I can take time to view them and ask questions. I enjoy viewing auctions on BreedersWorld, Willoughby (more showy animals, I know) but its just for funnsies. The one thing I like is when auctions post videos of the lot, which gives you a much better view of the animal than going off of a single photo of the lot. On topic of the dtn article here's my two cents: When we bid through BreedersWorld, once you submit your bid, it shows the next highest bid needed underneath (or beside I forget) the current highest bid, showing you how much you would have to bid to be the highest bidder. It's a screwy set up and has confused me before as to what the price was if I'm not paying attention. Maybe I'm wrong, but the guy said the new bid showed up under his bid, so I'm thinking his bid was the highest at $4000, and the $4250 was the next increment up. I could be wrong, as I'm not familiar with liveauctions.tv's set up, but I've seen auctions set up like this before. [/QUOTE]
