CLICK HERE FOR ONLINE BIDDING VIDEO TUTORIAL
Here on this online bidding platform, you can watch and bid live just as if you were with us in person! You will have listings available to you ahead of time, you’ll know the hip number of your favorites and the order they will sell in. This will make it easier for our online bidders to participate and hopefully get the horse(s) they have their eyes on! Horses will be added throughout the weeks leading up to the sale and Hip Numbers/Selling Order will finalize once consignments close. Check back often! At sale time, you'll have REAL TIME video & audio and bid buttons available to you and you can join us from anywhere in the world with a reliable internet or cellular connection!
The week of the sale, early absentee bidding becomes available to you! This works much like ebay for those of you familiar with that. You can place your maximum bid ahead of time and the computer will then act as your agent at sale time, bidding on your behalf by minimum increments to keep you in the lead. This option is useful for those of you with poor internet/cell service at home, those who are unable to watch live for any reason, and also for you folks who find the fast pace of a live auction to be intimidating. PLEASE NOTE that if you place an early absentee bid and that animal comes into the ring with an announcement that changes the information that was available to you when you placed your bid (i.e. the horse cribs but that was not disclosed in the listing) we will NOT honor your pre-bid for your protection. We want you to bid with the most accurate information available!
For those of you who prefer to watch and bid live, you’ll have real time audio/video available to you at sale time! Make sure you have registered to bid, are logged in, and then hit the “View Live” button on the live feed! You’ll be good to go and can participate just as if you were here in person!
For those of you using a mobile device, we do recommend downloading the Horse Auctions USA app for the best bidding experience! It is available FREE to download from the Google Play and App Stores! If you prefer to use your browser, we do recommend using Google Chrome
You will need to register with a credit/debit card in order to bid online. Please note that a pre-authorization for $500 will be placed on your registered card. This is NOT a charge, just an authorization to verify you are indeed a real person with a real card and is a good faith hold to allow you to bid. It will show up in your mobile banking as a "pending" charge but it will never complete. This authorization will fall off once the sale is complete and any purchases you have made are paid for. Winning bidders will make final payment for all purchases directly to the Corsica Horse Sales Office.
Read the Auction Terms & Conditions when you register! You are bound by them whether you actually read them or not so take a moment to get familiar with them!
Winning bidders should contact the Office at (605) 770-5813 to confirm preferred payment method and pickup arrangements!
Horses need to be picked up by NOON on SUNDAY! If that timeframe won't work (and we know it won't for some of our out of area bidders) you can arrange layover board. Please reach out to Kyle at (402) 841-7763
If you need any assistance with online bidding or have any questions pertaining to it, please call/text Bridget at (336) 904-8903. Please be sure to do so BEFORE we start the horse sale on Saturday at Noon. Once we start, Bridget is on the auction block and unable to answer calls! Register BEFORE the sale so we can assist you with anything you might need!
Good Luck & Happy Bidding!
Terms & Conditions
When you register to bid, you are bound by these terms & conditions whether you read them or not so please, TAKE THE TIME TO READ THEM!
1. All purchases are to be paid in full on day of sale & prior to removal from premises.
2. If a dispute arises between two or more bidders, the auctioneer will decide the dispute or resell the item.
3. All horses are sold "as is where is" except in the event of a horse sold to be "sound" covered under the 72 Hour Soundness Guarantee. In all other cases, the auction company assumes no liability for any guarantee made by the seller. Any horses sold to be "sound" and found to be otherwise must be reported to Sale Management within the 72 Hour Time Frame.
4. The auction company is not liable for any injury, damage, or loss incurred in connection with the sale.
5. Purchaser assumes responsibility for items when "sold".
6. Statements made on day of auction take precedence over previously written material.
7. Transportation is the responsibility of the Buyer.
8. There is a 4% Buyers Premium added to all winning internet bids.
INTERNET BIDDERS PLEASE NOTE! When you register to bid, Horse Auctions USA will place a $500 preauthorization on the credit or debit card that you register with. This is NOT a charge, just a preauthorization. Your mobile banking may send a notification that appears as a charge - AGAIN, it is just a preauthorization. The $500 will show as "pending" and then never complete but rather, will just vanish as if it was never there. Once the sale is complete, this preauthorization is released for all non-winning bidders. Winning bidders will have the preauthorization lifted once final settlement is made with the auction company. If for any reason you as a winning bidder fail to make final payment to the auction company before the open of business on Monday, you understand that Horse Auctions USA will finalize the $500 preauthorization and remit it to the auction company to be applied to your bill. Further, you understand that Horse Auctions USA will charge your registered card for the full amount due to the auction company for your winning bids. BID RESPONSIBLY and remember, your bid is a legally binding contract! You are responsible for your winning bids.
72 Hour Soundness Guarantee: Horses sold as SOUND in the ring for $1000 or more are sold with a 72 Hour Soundness Guarantee. This is defined as "No observable lameness, no cribbing, no weaving, clear sight in both eyes, sound of wind. Should you buy a horse in the ring sold as sound and find it to have any of the above listed conditions, you must contact sale management within 72 hours. What is NOT covered: Observable lameness means just that - gait abnormality observed in the normal course of movement. Failure of flexion tests or unsatisfactory x-ray findings are NOT included. Regardless of flexion or radiograph findings, if a horse travels observably sound, they are considered sound for the purposes of this guarantee. Suitability for a specific discipline and/or a horse's riding ability are in no way covered by this soundness guarantee. The guarantee is exclusive to soundness as defined above. In order to be covered by the guarantee, the horse MUST BE PURCHASED IN THE RING. You must be the high bidder IN THE RING for any guarantee to apply so if you want the guarantee, be the bidder! If at any point a horse is sold to be "as is" or "need maintenance" there is NO guarantee. If a horse is "no saled" in the ring and then purchased after, there is NO guarantee.
