The buyer is responsible for covering the cost of airline fees, a plastic airline approved kennel, a metal transport carrier, and food and water bowls.

~There must be a minimum purchase price of $400 in order for us to ship the rabbit(s).

QUALITY:
~Show/brood quality animals must keep their names given to them by Lots of Lops Rabbitry.
~Show/brood quality animals produced by Lots of Lops Rabbitry must keep the herd prefix LOL before their name. This includes names on pedigrees of the animals in question in addition to the pedigrees of their future offspring.
~Rabbits are sold as-is. It is the responsibility of the buyer to check over the rabbit before purchase. Don't just take my word for it though, look over the animal yourself. I may have missed something, and I don't want you buying something you don't want!
~If a rabbit has a disqualification that is known to us, we will always tell the buyer before purchase, or we will specifically use the word 'brood' when referring to the rabbit. Examples of DQs we would use in our breeding program to produce show-worthy offspring would be false dwarfs (aka normals), torted otters (aka foxes), and rabbits with broken toes, torn ears, etc..
~Pet quality rabbits will not make good show rabbits, but would make great pets or Showmanship rabbits! We do not offer pedigrees with any pet quality rabbits. Pet quality rabbits are sold under the strict understanding that they will not be used for breeding under any circumstances. This is a rule that we take extremely seriously.
GUARANTEES:
~All rabbits are guaranteed to be healthy to the best of our knowledge at the time of sale.
~We do not guarantee health (except in accordance with our Health Guarantee below), show placings, weight, fertility, how well a rabbit will produce, or temperament.
~We guarantee the sex of Sr. rabbits (over 6 months of age). With younger rabbits, there is a very small chance a mistake could have been made, so, therefore, we do not guarantee the sex of Jr. rabbits (under 6 months of age).
~We always disclose any disqualifications of show/brood before the rabbit has been sold. However, mistakes could possibly be made. It is the buyer's responsibility to look over the rabbit and check for faults/DQs before purchase.
HEALTH GUARANTEE:
~When a rabbit is sold or put up for sale, it is healthy to the best of my knowledge.
~Once the rabbit leaves my care, I unfortunately cannot make any health guarantee. This is because rabbits are unpredictable animals by nature. I am not responsible for how the new owner chooses to take care of the rabbit, or any mistakes the buyer makes in the care, handling, and health of the animal. Therefore, I unfortunately cannot make any health guarantee. I do however advise the owner to contact me immediately so we can discuss any issues at hand.
~Lots of Lops Rabbitry is not responsible for any veterinary fees incurred at any point during the life of the animal.
INCLUDED WITH THE RABBIT:

~Buyers of pet rabbits get a birth certificate with their rabbit!
~In the best interests of my rabbit and yours, I unfortunately cannot offer boarding for rabbits I have sold. This is because I operate a closed rabbitry and do not want to risk the biosecurity of my herd. The health of my rabbits is extremely important to me, so this is a decision that ensures the safety of your rabbits and my own! :)
