Seller's Guarantee

  • Based upon representations made solely by the horse seller, all horses consigned have passed both our sifting processes prior to the sale. All horses are sold guaranteed sound by the seller only that at the time of sale the horse was sound of limb, wind, and eye unless other announcements are made from the auction block. This soundness guarantee shall be exclusively between buyer and seller only and does not include any other persons.  Buyer understands and agrees that MM Auction Services is not responsible to perform any inspection or to independently confirm or verify the soundness of seller’s horse.  Buyer understands and agrees that MM Auction Services is unaware of the condition of Seller’s horse, and therefore is relying solely upon representations made by seller regarding the condition of the horse and that the horse is sound.  All soundness guarantees do not include any time period following the sale including transportation. Buyers are encouraged to purchase equine insurance directly following the sale to protect their investments. Shall any soundness disputes arise; the buyer is required to contact the seller and settle the dispute. Buyer agrees to indemnify, release and hold harmless MM Auction Services, Colby or Codi Gines, Premier Horse Sales, to and from any claims, liability or damages which may be asserted by buyer of the horse on account of any breach of warranty, breach of promise or alleged misrepresentation. In the event it is determined that the defect was present at the time of sale, the seller is required to trade the buyer a horse of same value. If the horse is determined not to have the alleged defect, the sale of said horse is valid and enforceable and purchaser assumes all costs of examination, treatment, and sale purchase price. Soundness does not guarantee pass of a check by any vet or trainer following the sale. Buyers are to ride and visit the horse before the sale giving them the confidence they need to bid come sale day. If Buyer wants additional x-rays, they need to have them completed before the sale at their own expense. Buyers are required to contact the seller to resolve any situations. A decision needs to be made based on what is best for both parties. Whether the buyer did their homework or not, will also be taken into consideration.
