auction prices

there is an auction in my county that I've always been curious to go to and maybe buy something. What kind of prices do you pay at auction per lb? and what was the animal and age?

I believe most if not all cattle auctions are listed. You should be able to google it and find the sale prices from the previous week.

The following is the one in my area:

they give market info on my local auction website, but I don't know how to read it, embarrassing to say.

All the prices on the right are per 100 pounds. I'll look at the second link now.
