I have bought 2 unseen and touch wood have never had a problem
I bought mine unseen, from auction! just saw him having a walk and trot and that was it! Spur of the moment decision, sometimes its worth taking a risk
I bought a yearling filly unseen, just got the transporter to pay for her and pick her up. I would not sell one this way though, unless I knew the person.
Dry Rot - your Stallion is gorgeous!
For me its a case of 'Do as I say and not as I do!'
So yes I have, no I wouldn't advise it and I probably wouldn't sell one that way.
When I first saw Roberto I wasn't even really looking to buy and he was a 10 hr round trip away. From the moment I saw the photo's of him I said to my OH I've found a horse I want to buy. It wasn't a case of my heart over ruling my head but an instant gut feeling that I knew I had to go with. Knowing a bit about the stud that bred him I phoned the owner, spent ages on the phone and I had no doubt that I had nothing to worry about.
That was two years ago and anyone on here that read my posts will know that Roberto means the world to me. He is one in a million so my gut instinct was right again! This was one of the photos that grabbed my attention and thats him now in my signiture.
