HOW TO PARTICIPATE AS AN ABSENTEE BUYER

We have made preparations to bid and buy livestock through Superior Productions’ “Call or Click-To-Bid” service for those unable to attend in person on sale day. Please note that all of the lots in the sale will also be available for viewing online prior to sale day at www.superiorlive.com.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS

Turn in Bids Over the Phone. This is our traditional method of buying livestock. To get started simply go online to www.superiorlive.com and click on the tab titled “REGISTER FOR YOUR BUYER’S NUMBER”. Print the registration form, fill it out and fax it in (817/378-3380) to Superior Productions with a signature on it. You can also mail it in to the address provided on the form. To register by phone, call 800-431-4452 to initiate the registration procedure. Upon receipt of this information Superior will call you with a buyer’s number and the bid line phone number that you will use on sale day to place bids over the phone.
If you have a Van Norman Preferred Buyer number , give this to Superior and they will use this as your pass to receiving a Superior bid number which you need to use when bidding.

Click-To-Bid. This is Superior’s newest way to buy cattle! Registration is free, but you must become a member of www.superiorclicktobid.com to sign up. Becoming a member is easy – just go to the homepage of www.superiorclicktobid.com and follow the outlined steps to get started. Input your information and select a username and password. You will receive an e-mail confirming you are a member. From that point forward you just have to sign in and select the sale you would like to register for and once approved by the ranch you will receive an e-mail confirming which sale you are now registered for.

Viewing the Auction. The sale will be broadcast live on the internet at www.superiorclicktobid.com – just go to the home page and select the auction. Remember you can call in to bid over the phone when watching on the internet if you have registered for that service, but you must be a member of www.superiorclicktobid.com to “click-to-bid”. Your computer must have Flash Media Player installed to view the auction.
If you are totally confused, please call or e-mail Kelly (Superior Livestock) at 800-431-4452 kkeller@superiorlivestock.com or Linda Bunch at 775-756-6508 mrsbunch@rtci.net.

Bidders who are successful in making purchases will be contacted by a sale representative during or after the sale to arrange payment and make shipping arrangements. Transportation is the responsibility of the buyer; however, Linda Bunch of the Van Norman Sale will help expedite the process whenever possible.
