Re: [RC] Buying/selling horses - Chris Paus

Bette, I just have to say, that this spring, for the
first time ever, I offered my in utero foals for sale
at less than half their usual sale price. My DH and I
have been going through some tough times and frankly,
I really needed the cash.

well, I got only one interested buyer for my Anglo
foal, and she backed out. I understand it is scary not
knowing for sure what you are going to get!

Now that she has seen his photos (he's the one on the
stableminds.com web site cover), she's kicking
herself. Because of his quality, his price has tripled
from what I offered her in March. Say la vie...He has
"awesome" written all over him.

Heidi has a big ranch in Idaho. I have just 15 acres
of pasture in Kansas. I've already made my choice of
the one I want to keep for my next forever horse, so I
hope the rest find good homes and their new "moms" or
"dads" are tickled pink with their new equine buddies.

I wish I could keep them all, but I can't. And with
each passing year, it gets harder, not easier to see
them load up in a shipping van....

I happen to
have all the 
quality I need now-- hard to imagine that I am still
not satisfied-- and 
cannot wait until full maturity to evaluate all
offspring. If my clients 
get better quality than me--- hooray for them!!!
