Sale Information
AIR TRANSPORTATION:
Aberdeen is serviced by Delta Airlines. Huron and Pierre
are serviced by Great Lakes Airlines which is affiliated with

INTERNET & ABSENTEE BIDDING:
We would prefer for each of you to be in attendance on sale
day. Realistically, we know that there will be some scheduling
conflicts and distance limitations. In these cases we have ar-
ranged for you to be able to participate in the sale on an absentee
basis with a conference call dedicated to bidding. We will have
available one phone line which can accommodate 20 to 30 bid-
ders. Please call prior to the sale and register as a prospective
buyer. We have limited capabilities to bid by phone during the
sale. Your best option is to be in attendance at the sale, but if you
cannot attend or feel more comfortable bidding yourself, we need
to warn you of complications in the past with phone service, such
as the volume and the rapid pace at which our sale moves. If we
handle the bids for you, they will be done in the strictest of confi-
dence. However, if you want to attempt bidding by phone, please
make arrangements prior to sale day by calling Craig or Peggy.
For internet bidding information, see DVAuction below.
If you are unable to attend and you feel comfortable doing
so, you can leave those bids with the Bieber family, auctioneer,
or publication representatives. We handle many sight unseen
bids and have very satisfied customers who feel confident in us-
ing that service. We prefer to have plenty of time to discuss your
needs over the phone prior to sale day so that we may select the
cattle that best fit your specs. We buy those animals just like you
were sitting ringside with us. We also guarantee the cattle so that
if they don’t meet your ideals, you just return them to us. If pos-
sible, come by and evaluate the offering prior to sale day. We will
post video of each lot on our website prior to the sale but may run
into time limitations.
COLOR:
All animals are red unless otherwise indicated in the foot-
notes.
FOLLOWING SALE:
