SWALHC Stallion Service Auction Terms & Conditions
|
***ATTENTION BIDDERS: PLEASE DO NOT BID IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO OR CANNOT PAY!***
All bids will be considered a legally binding contract to purchase and payment will be expected at auction end. If you purchase a breeding and find that you cannot use it for the auction year, please contact the stallion owner to find out if other arrangements can be made. Since this auction is our largest fundraiser, SWALHC relies on the bids when preparing our budget for the year. |
Money collected by the SW Andalusian & Lusitano Horse Club for breedings sold through the auction will be used, at the discretion of the officers, for continued service improvement to the membership, promotion and advertising of the breed, or other uses that would benefit the membership and the breed.
The SW Andalusian & Lusitano Horse Club will not be liable for any damage incurred, tangible or intangible, as a result of participating in the Stallion Auction.
The stallion owner will provide the following details:

- Pictures of stallion.
-
Pictures of offspring (optional)
-
Accomplishments (optional).

-
Statement of what type breeding services are available: live cover / A.I. only or if both are available.

Statement of any foal guarantees and if the stud fee is transferable, etc… (Live foal guarantee, and if the mare fails to produce a live foal – if a substitute mare is acceptable)..
- Supply SWALHC with a sample stallion service contract for your stallion that lists your terms – if one is available.
In the event that the stallion owner offers the breeding to be used for a purebred or partbred - the highest dollar bid wins the breeding as long as it meets the minimum bid.
SWALHC will make every attempt to notify winning bidders, however, it is each bidder's responsibility to monitor the auction(s) they have bid on.
When the auction closes the stallion owner will be notified of the winning bidder, the stallion owner will notify SWALHC of his/her acceptance of the bid.
*The stallion owner has the right to refuse the high bid.*
If this occurs, the breeding may be sold to the next highest bidder.
If any dispute arises between two or more bidders, the SW Andalusian & Lusitano Horse Club Officers will have the right to make the final decisions.
All contractual arrangements, guarantees, mare care, veterinary costs and other expenses are solely between the service purchaser and the stallion owner.
Stallion owners will be notified when their stallion's payment has been received IN FULL. They will not breed the winning mare or ship semen until they have been notified or have contact SWALHC to verify that payment has been received in full. (Thanks!)
