My policy for sales is below. I don't have a contract, no one would sign it when I tried that and quite frankly I hated it so I just wrote out my policy instead. I give a copy with each sale, so there is no excuse for not knowing or asking about concerns before completing a sale. If there would ever be an issue come up, I'd refer to it. I've done that in the past and made allowances as needed, each person and situation is unique. No one is perfect and bad things at some point are going to happen. I had trouble with people pasting and changing information on my pedigrees in the past so I've added that to my policies as well. I've also noted that rabbits are pick up only, no visits to rabbitry on my page and when people call for safety reasons.
