Some of the comments we
have heard from past buyers:
"Now that's the way to have a bull sale"
"I thought the sale went very well . . . it was easy to tell what and where the
bid was"
"Everything was very relaxed"
"It worked good for us to be able to come and look at the bulls when we could
and then think about it awhile"
Sale FAQs:
What is "Buy Your Way"?
The simple answer is that this is a limited silent auction/private treaty sale--EXCLUSIVELY
HERE AT THE FARM-- but
we're adding a few other twists to make it unique.
Why not just sell strictly by
private treaty?
We like the personal interaction of a private treaty sale (which we find
difficult to deliver on a busy traditional auction day)
but we also want to give everyone equal opportunity to bid on the bulls.
Why is the sale a week long?
The sale week includes two Saturdays and (hopefully) plenty of good
weather days to better fit your busy schedules. We also want to be sure we
have enough time to visit with folks about their operations and their genetic
needs.
What other buyers' advantages are there to this sale?
In a traditional auction, animals will be sold in a particular order,
and seldom is that order ideal for everyone. With this format, all
of the bulls are in the ring at the same time, so if a bull you are interested
in moves out of your price range, there's plenty of time (at least hours,
if not days) to either adjust your budget or select another bull. In a
traditional auction, you may have to make these kinds of decisions within
minutes.
Our goal is for this sale to be:
•Convenient
•Low pressure
•Relaxed
•Fair
•Transparent
•Simple

Round, sound and low to the ground. We're very excited about what
High Roller has
done for C Diamond Simmentals and we're excited about this young herd sire
prospect
as well.
