Re: [RC] registration - Bette LamoreAs you say, Laney, the papers are important in selling a horse and if a breeder takes pity on someone without much money who wants a horse at a bargain price, the breeder may sell the horse at rock bottom. HOWEVER that breeder would hate to see that buyer take advantage of the situation and sell the horse at a much higher price with the new owner expecting papers. IF the horse is resold at the same low price, then the new buyer should be told that a difference in price needs to be paid for the papers. the buyer then would have NO problem IMHO with paying the original breeder the difference of what the horse is worth- or at least what the breeder is willing to take at that point not to feel taken advantage of. The whole sequence of events has to be taken into consideration-- not just a segment. Haven't you ever heard the story of the four blind men who were each describing an elephant, with one at the tail, one at the trunk and one in the middle-- and one feeling a leg??? Things are not always as they seem and I myself have seen far more cases of the breeder being taken advantage of than the buyer :-) Bette Bette Lamore Whispering Oaks Arabians Home of Bunny and 16.2h TLA Halynov who lives on through his legacy Hal's Riverdance! http://www.arabiansporthorse.com Always remember: "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."

Some people (sellers) seem to think the piece of paper is more valuable than the horse. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
