CONSIGNMENT TERMS

We accept a VERY limited number (LITERALLY A HANDFUL EACH YEAR!!!) of consignment horses, from a pre-approved list of consignors.  In some cases we will accept a past sold horse on consignment.  We do not currently accept consignments from the general public.  Our facility is almost always full, so we do typically have at least a 30-60 day waiting period on accepting consignments.

Feed/board is billed at $600 per month or $25 per day, whichever is less
Maintenance due is billed at actual costs, vet, farrier, dental, etc.  Hauling is a $250 minimum within 60 miles, and then above 60 miles is billed by the mile based on current fuel prices.

Advertising is billed at cost, at $300 per horse.

We produce professional sales pics and a high quality sales video at $500 per horse.

We require a non-refundable payment of $2,000 paid up front on all consignment horses.   This payment applies towards 2 months of board, sales pics, sale video, and advertising expenses.  This payment is non-refundable, and in the case that the horse is rejected from our program, this payment covers our expenses, time, and evaluation fee.

We charge a 25% commission off of the actual sale price, on all horses over $10,000
30% on horses sold under $10,000
