International Miniature Appaloosa & Pintaloosa Club

How does the auction work?
IMAPC Members who own Appaloosa and Pintaloosa stallions, have donated a breeding service to their stallion to benefit IMAPC. Each breeding service is offered for bid to the public at stud fee prices set by the owner of each stallion and listed on the stallions bidding area.

Each stallion is bid on in a silent auction format by clicking on the “BID ON ME” link. Payment of the winning bid is made directly to IMAPC for the stud fee service via PayPal + fees. This payment is for the purchase price of the breeding service ONLY. Costs such as shipping, mare care, confirmation of pregnancy etc. are additional fees to be arranged between mare and stallion owner upon winning bid.

This Notice of Terms and Conditions will be strictly adhered to by both the Stallion Owner and the Mare Owner. Your bid constitutes payment for one service to the chosen stallion. All other costs that may be incurred for the service are separate and apart from the International $potted $tallion $ervice Auction and must be negotiated directly between the stallion and mare owner.

The starting bid for each stallion is determined by the stallion owner as his Stud Fee. This “beginning bid” is shown on the stallion bid page and on the individual stallion’s information page. Subsequent bidding will be updated daily. Be sure to refresh/reload to view current bid amounts.

Bids will be accepted in $50.00 increments.

The amount of the Bid will be accepted in the order they are received.

Auction will begin January 19, 2008, and continue until March 31, 2008 at midnight.

At the close of auction, you will be billed via PayPal for the amount of your winning bid. Payment for accepted bid must be received on or before April 5, 2008 (5 days from close). If you need an alternative payment method, please note that in the comments section of the BID ON ME form.

Mares must arrive with a clean culture, current negative Coggins, Brand Inspection (if required) and Health Certificate and be up to date on all vaccinations, dewormings and hoof care. **We advise all mare owners to insure the mare(s) while out for servicing. Please inquire about area specific vaccination recommendations from the stallion owner, i.e. West Nile Virus, Strangles, etc.

The IMAPC Officers will arbitrate any disputed contracts, and their decisions will be final.

If a Stallion whose service has been purchased, is not able to fulfill the service, due to illness, death or sale, the Mare Owner will offered the following options: a) monies can be applied to another available stallion service, or b) a farm credit in the amount of your bid can be given by the Stallion owner.

If due to an unfortunate event, your Mare is unable to be bred to the stallion whose service you purchased, you may submit a substitute mare for approval to the Stallion owner.

LIVE FOAL GUARANTEE: 24 hours, stand & nurse. In the event your foal does not survive 24 hours, your vet certified death report must be submitted to the Stallion Owner, to exercise your breed back.

If you have any questions about the stallion service auction itself, please don’t hesitate to contact the IMAPC Co-Presidents: Sandii Turner at QuarterMoonFarm@starband.net or Diane Wolcott at dcwolcott@tnni.net
