[QUOTE="Bez>, post: 364422, member: 6007"] Price? Whatever the buyer is willing to pay - not a penny more. Because the owner has possession until the buyer meets the price. I watched a 400 buck steer go all the way to the top in Alberta some years ago. Beat out all the high priced players. And there were some big money animals in the various rings. A bit of grumbling, but it was the best steer. If I remember correctly there were a total of seven different judges that said so. I know, because it belonged to my daughter - she bought it against my judgement from an old cowboy neighbour because that old cowboy told her it would be a "good un". That cowboy is still an honoured and trusted friend - even though he rubs it in to me every now and then! :D So price is not always the best discriminator. In fact it is often the worst.
