 Don't Wanna Make This Awkward
Posts: 3106
  
Location: Texas | I posted earlier in june that w sold our mare "Daizy" the sad thing is we didn't get to say goodbye, someone showed up with cash and took her home and the lady that sold her for us won't tell us any info on where she is or who bought her all I know is she is within 100 of the dallas area and she went to a little girl that is gonna jr rodeo on her.
She was my little sisters horse for the past 3 years and the first horse we ever bought, she just has a lot of sentimental value, and the deal was, we would get to meet the new owners and say goodbye, and my sister is just heartbroken over it. I know with her going to a rodeo family there is a chance someone on here could help me.
If you have any info please PM me, I would really appreciate it! Thank you |

I have no idea, I talked to someone that has bought a couple horses from her and apparently she won't give the buyers the previous owner information either.. It would be so easy if she would just tell us, or say the new owners don't wish to be contacted, something like that...
I'm at a loss here on what to do, this is only the 2nd horse we've ever sold and the 1st one went to our friends. |

Location: Do I hear Banjos? | Well...I don't give out other people's info without their permission...so maybe that's her thinking. Try asking her to pass on a letter or message to the new owners for you. That way if they know you would like to say goodbye or be in contact they can decide if they want to do that.
Honestly...I get that you all may just want that closure...but the new owners may not want to deal with the past owner. They don't know you...and didn't even deal with you on the sale...you had someone sell her for you. So it may just seem odd and a cause for concern that you want to have their info now.

Good luck, that is just beyond strange. |

I completely understand that. We asked for her to ask them if it was okay, no reply.
I would much rather know "No they don't want to talk to me" then just not knowing anything at all. The whole situation would make sense if this was the case. |

What it tells me is that this seller is selling the horses for a LOT more than requested and pocketing the rest.....she doesn't want that information out.......... |

That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. I would not buy a horse if I could not talk to the previous owner and I would not sell one (I liked, lol) without talking to the buyer. Everybody does things different I guess.

You have a problem with that? Daizy gave her a price she had to have and anything more goes to the person that actually sold the horse. This is called Free Enterprise. I'm just wondering if these horses are going to a meat market. Not that THAT maters either as long as the base price was met. |

| Dynasty Equine sold a palomino paint mare this past week and I know Fallon does a lot of trading. (I've bought two "NFR caliber" horses from her. Both are able to run as advertised, but like other people have said, the second one I bought is BatSh**t crazy; I don't know if she didn't know that about him, but we all know Dynasty "turns over their product quickly")." Thus, it's not improbable your mare may have landed up at Dynasty and was sold again shortly thereafter. Might be worth it to inquire. Good luck! |

NO....I DON'T have a problem with that ....as long as she is honest about her selling tactics. Most sales are a on percentage basis......I would "guess" that since she doesn't want any contact between sellers and buyers that she is being "deceitful" about something! |

A prominent barrel horse trainer sold my mare. I told her what I wanted-she kept the mare about three weeks, called me one night and said the mare was sold. I got my full price-didn't ask what the mare sold for as I got what I wanted. It's done frequently. |

Actually, I DO have a problem with that... Let's say you have a horse worth $10K, you give it to someone to sell and they jack up the price to $20K... someone buys your horse and finds out the horse has an issue and it's only a $10K horse. Who is responsible for that? The owner or the broker? As the owner, you get sued for $20K. It's not good business practice not to have a contract when selling a horse. There needs to be a specific price set and a contract that says how much commission the broker will get and a disclosure from the owner with all the horse's information in it. Just like when you sell a house. Maybe I'll start a horse brokering business and perhaps a new trend in this industry. Someone sure needs to.

At the end of the day, they're worth whatever someone will write a check for.
