These are the rules governing our video sales and transfers of cattle.
Please read them carefully.


  1. Each buyer must be properly registered and have a buyer number.
  2. The auctioneer will settle any dispute as to bids. His decision will be final.
  3. Forty dollars ($40.00) per head partial payment will be due on date of purchase for each head of cattle purchased.
  4. Payment upon shipment of the cattle will be as follows:
    If buyer is present at delivery, full payment must be received at delivery. If buyer is not present at delivery, full payment must be received no later than the following business day. If payment is made at time of delivery, by other than certified funds, or if payment is not received at delivery, then buyer must execute and deliver a security agreement and uniform commercial code financing statement to perfect a security interest in the livestock pending receipt of full payment. If full payment has not been received within six (6) days of delivery, the financing statement will be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of California perfecting the security interest. The financing statement will be released when full payment has been received.
  5. Drafts will not be accepted for either part or final payment.
  6. Western Video Market will have a representative present at all shipments.
  7. All payments are to be made to the representatives as named in the sale catalog.
  8. All cattle will be weighed on a certified scale. Any cuts that are made will be made after cattle are weighed. Cuts will be weighed back.
  9. All cattle are sold FOB shipping point. Losses resulting from transit shall be buyer's liability. Freight rates are not guaranteed by Western Video Market or by the seller.
  10. All cattle are sold on a slide as indicated in the catalog description.
  11. Ship dates will be set at seller's option unless otherwise stated. Lots under 300 head will ship on one day unless otherwise indicated. Lots of 300 head or more may ship on two or more days unless otherwise indicated.
  12. This is a load lot sale. A load of cattle is 42,000# to 50,000# unless otherwise stated. At buyer's timely request the representative market will fill out partial loads.
  13. We have endeavored to have all information in the catalog correct; however, any announcements from the auction block will take precedence over printed information.
  14. Western Video Market, Inc. is a production company only and assumes no financial responsibility for cattle represented in our video sales. That responsibility rests with the auction yard or dealer representing the cattle for sale.
