Be VERY careful when buying alleged Premarin foals, as I unfolded a scheme several years ago where a woman was advertising Premarin foals in the paper, asking for deposits, the foals were coming from North Dakota...imagine my surprise when a foal I had sold ended up in one of her lots!!!! She was totally playing on the sympathies of the public in order to sell foals she was buying for a couple of hundred dollars for anywhere from 8 to 1500 dollars. I called her on it and she became extremely nasty. She never did it again.
