Pricing:
All cattle prices are subject to change without prior notice and
are based on recent sales of stock, herd changes, new arrivals,
and/or new acquisitions of stock. If you have contacted us about
a particular animal and we have quoted a price to you, we will
hold that price for you for 30 days from the date of your first
inquiry.
Payment
Methods
Full payment
is required at the time of purchase, except for special or seasonal
"lay-away" arrangements.
Payment will
be accepted via cash or cashier's check.
Personal checks are only accepted from established customers.
For long distance orders or large purchases, wire transfers can
be arranged.
Checks should be made payable to: Pearl Longhorn Ranch
Registration
A TLBAA Registration Certificate and transfer of ownership will
be furnished to the buyer free of charge upon the qualified sale
of an animal. Transfers will not be completed until all payment
has cleared.
Availability
We have cattle for sale at all times.
Most of
our
cattle are available for sale, however, for the sake of our breeding
program goals, foundation animals may be unavailable for purchase
due to the integral part they might play in that effort. In some
cases, we may select a new heifer or bull to add to our own breeding
herd. This will be noted in the website information about that
animal or on our price list. As our herd grows, then some of our
foundation stock will be made available for sale.
Possession
After acceptance of an offer to purchase and payment
transactions are completed, the Buyer will assume full responsibility
for the animal. A down payment in a layaway situation on an animal
constitutes a decision to purchase and is not refundable.
The
sole risk and responsibility for the animal belongs to
the new owner.This includes medical work above and beyond normal
vaccinations. Possession cannot be obtained until full payment
for the animal has cleared.
Should the Buyer want to delay the pick-up of the animal
after full payment has been made, boarding fees may incur as outlined
below. Animals left with us for rebreeding will normally not incur
boarding fees, if the subsequent rebreeding is included in the
sales transaction. See other information below concerning pasture breeding and boarding.
Health
& Branding
All heifer calves born and raised at Pearl Longhorn
Ranch will have received their Official Calfhood Vaccination (OCV)
for brucellosis. All calves are also vaccinated for blackleg,
upper respiratory and other viral infections, lepto/vibrio, and
will have received scheduled worming medications. All calves born
and raised at Pearl Longhorn Ranch will be branded with our holding
brand before leaving the ranch, unless they are still at the side
of the dam and sold as aa cow/calf pair.
Guarantee
We guarantee the health of all of our animals up
until possession by the new owner.
Pricing
/ Right of Withdrawal
We reserve the right to withdraw any animal from
sale availability, as long as no formal offer is pending for that
animal. Prices may change at any time and without notice, due
to market fluctuations, herd size, large sales of stock, calving dates, and re-breeding
schedules. Prices will not be adjusted for a period of 15 days
for any animals with offers on them.
Lay-Away
and Boarding
We
can provide lay-away arrangements for some purchases. These terms
will be decided on a case-by-case basis and layaway purchases
may also include a boarding fee.
Boarding
fees* for adult animals will be $2.00 per day for summer
months (April - August) and $4.00 per day for fall/winter months
(September - March). Calves, at side of a dam visiting for breeding,
will be charged at $1.00 per day. Due to recent drought conditions
in Texas, we start haying & feeding sometimes in late August.
Please check about boarding fee rates for drought situations.
Young PLR calves purchased before they are weaned will not be
subject to a boarding fee until weaning has occurred and after
a three-week adjustment period for the calf. We strongly suggest
a three week period before taking possession of a newly-weaned,
young heifer or bull calf. After that adjustment time, boarding
fees will apply unless prior arrangments have been completed with
PLR.
Any female brought to PLR for pasture breeding and boarding will
be subject to approval of its overall health and review of veterinary
records for vaccinations and treatments. The animal's Owner assumes
full responsibility for the animal when left for breeding/boarding and will sign a release of reponsibility as part of arrangements..
*
Boarding fees are subject to change without notice based on
fluctuations of weather conditions, feed and fuel costs. |
