Deposits and Payments
Acceptable Forms of Payment
-
Personal checks and Cashiers
Checks are accepted if 2 or more weeks are allowed for the check to
clear before the horse leaves.
-
Cash is also accepted at the time
of pick up.
Non-refundable Deposits
Deposits are
non-refundable due to experiences we and other breeders/sellers have
had. When a deposit is made on a horse, we tell other potential buyers
that the horse has been sold. Those potential buyers then spend their
money on other horses or for other uses. Often, at the time that a
buyer backs out of the purchase of a horse, those people who had
previously wanted the horse are no longer able to buy. The effects of
this are at least two-fold:
-
Those potential buyers are angry, because the
horse they really wanted is now for sale again, but they can't
buy it because they've already allocated their money elsewhere. This
creates a negative image of the seller in their minds.
-
We sellers now have to go through the entire process
again of advertising, sending videos, answering inquiries, etc.
again in order to sell the horse. This can become time consuming.

We really don't want you to make a deposit on a horse unless you are
SURE you want the horse. Because of this, we don't anticipate having any problems
with non-refundable deposits. To ensure you are happy with your
decision, we will make every effort to answer all of your questions
about the horse(s) you are interested in.
