Bucking Stock Broker Terms & Conditions:

Bucking Stock Broker is not an Auction Service. Although we are referred to as an "Online Auction" web site it is important to realize that we are not a traditional "auctioneer." Instead, Bucking Stock Broker acts as a venue to allow rodeo stock breeders to buy and sell rodeo stock in an auction-style format commonly referred to as "online auctions" or "auctions." We are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers. As a result, we have no control over the quality, health, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the ability of sellers to sell items or the ability of buyers to pay for items. We cannot ensure that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction. Consequently, we do not transfer legal ownership of an item from the seller to the buyer, all transactions are made between the seller and the highest bidder at the close of the auction.
