so....if your at the auction and don't bib or buy a thing.....just set on your hands you can win..... but if you actively bid on ......say ten lots , buy 2 but you don't get to win a door prize because you don't matter but the bump sitting on the bleacher does you must be a good customer.

I will never bid on anything from DVAuction again. I wonder if John ever knew what was going on? I think that internet bidders are a big plus for the sales and then to treat us like they did in that sale was wrong.

I had pretty good luck online as a bidder. I won from drawings but I had to buy something and had my # entered. I thought you could win from just bidding but then found out you actually had to purchase. Seems like the rules change in everything I do, and then I stop and think they didn't even have to give anything if they didn't want too. One thing about it, I bought something when I wasn't planning on it! Good for the seller!
I'm sorry about anyone elses bad luck.

Good point... I've also never seen an auction where the give aways go to just anyone in the crowd... most times you have to buy at least one lot to qualify.

There were some steals at that sale. Who ever got the Moses daughter, bred to Pure Impact for $1500, Great Job, and be glad I was having trouble getting my bidding to work online.
Think about the names in those 2010 fawns:
Pure Impact, Suddan Impact, Bam Bam, Bucky (2), Highroller, Redoy Bert, Governor(2)...........$1500

I was interested in that one, however it would change my cwd date. I own the Governor doe in those pedigrees. Also she is the granddam to the biggest 2 year old Max son outside Texas! She has given me 4 does and no bucks, maybe this year. She is bred to a yearling (Martygraw---Sleetstorm/Diet pepsi womb sister!) She is ten or eleven and I just can't believe how good she looks. I think she's just one of those girls you can't seem to do anything wrong with. You know what I mean?
The rules did change with the give aways. You had to buy a deer if you were using the internet thru DV Auction in order to qualify for the give aways. The number DV assigned to you for your bidder was a fake until you actually purchased a deer, then they assigned you a bidder number then that was put in for the give aways. Totally different then what was put in the catalog for the give aways. I understand they didn't have to do any of the give aways. The rules should be played by how they were put in the catalog & not changed at the last to us internet bidders.
I was online with the auction most all if it ... I loved it keep up the good work John.

I Agree the internet is a great way to go if you can't go................As long as it WORKS I have seen numerous times that it did'nt. But the main thing i think being said here STICK to what you print in those catalogs and we probably would not be having this DISSTRACTION from the sale.
