Just wanted to know you guys opinions on what you think happened to a steer I recently sold at a sale barn. He weighed in at 665lbs, red, medium to large, Limo/Beefmaster cross, so he was looking very good. When he came out into the arena, he was set in at .75 cents, and the bidding didnt go any higher than .77, and he was out of there in a hurry. I later checked the price range for medium to large steers, in the 650-675 lb range that sold that day, and not a one of them sold for any less than .97 per lb. I just wondered if maybe the sale barn owner or one of the workers there, set in the bid, and sent him out real quick so they could bring him in back next week, and make up the difference that I lost? Any comments or thoughts?
And in case you all think I was being unfairly singled out; I also had the highest priced black baldy, Hereford/Limo cross that sold that day for 1.24 per lb.
