Your bull is a valuable asset and we’ve done everything possible to ensure you get a problem-free bull. For 3 years, we guarantee:
If not, you will receive a prorated credit to use in a future sale, less the amount of salvage value you receive. Calendar Year 1: 100%, Year 2: 67%, Year 3: 33%. For example: You pay $5,500 for a bull and his semen fails to meet BSE requirements the next spring. You talk with us, we agree he ships and you receive $1,200 in salvage. That means you get a credit for $5,500 – $1,200 = $4,300 to use in a future sale. If the same situation occurred in year 2, you’d be entitled to 67% of the purchase price less salvage (67% x $5,500 – $1,200 = $2485 credit. In year 3, that would be 33% x $5,500 – $1,200 = $615 credit.
We can not cover factors we can’t control, including but not limited to injury, fighting, disease, founder, lightning, death, freeze damage, etc. We’re simply guaranteeing that if you do your part and take good care of your bull(s), we’ll promise his feet stay sound and his ability to produce semen remains.
Please call us immediately if you have a problem so we can solve it together.
