NIGHT OF SALE PAYMENT IS REQUESTED UNLESS ADVANCED BILLING ARRANGEMENTS ARE MAKE WITH FAIR OFFICE. All animals are sold to the highest bidder. The winning bid has the option to resale or process. The resale price will be announced at the beginning of the sale. If the choice is to resale, the winning bidder pays the bid amount less the resale price. Should the winning bidder choose custom processing, the buyer pays the total amount of the bid. All transportation and processing fees are the responsibility of the buyer. The Southeastern Youth Fair is a Not-For-Profit organization and all contributions above the resale price are tax deductible.
