Paul Aurandt - 2 Chance Ranch - SC Ranch Equine FX formely known as 2 Chance Ranch Beware of Paul & Tracy - they are crooks !!! Houtzdale, Pennsylvania
Last spring my husband & I wanted to buy a couple of good trailhorses. We ended up finding out about the 2 Chance Ranch (owners Paul & Tracy). My husband called to tell them exactly what we were looking for, especially since I had never even been around horses.
They set up an appointment for us because they said they found 2 horses of what we were looking for. We went out they had them already saddled and ready to go. The one for me was very beautiful and right for my size.
The one for my husband was also very beautiful and right size for him. He rode his and Tracy led me around with a lead line on mine. They seemd like almost perfect horses. Well then a month later or so they came to our property.
Needless to say my husbands horse you couldn't ride at all. She was just awful. The other horse could only be ridden in a round pen & constantly destroyed our barn and fencing. Needless to say we contacted Paul & Tracy and they told us they would trade us but no money back.
Paul told us he would sell us a guaranteed broke trailhorse so we bought him and they delivered him and when he showed up his ribs were sticking out from it.Because he was such a gentle horse we decided to keep him.
As we worked with him we found out he was no different form the other 2 and would only ride in the round pen. We ended up having to sell all 3 of these horses at auction. We lost alot of money on them.
My husband also did work for them at their new facility and they refused to pay him for the work. We also found out from other people that they owe others alot of money. Do not buy any horses, sell any horse or do any business with them beacuse they will rip you off.

O boy, here we go, another person who goes out looking for a horse to buy and find one they like and now because they dont know what to do its the sellers fault!!!???? please...
Jamie came to me looking for a good broke horse and a quiet one for his wife. Well he says he can ride and he use to ride those fast horses. his words.. should of known. so i show him a very well broke horse and he rode it all around for a hour or so and showed is wife a very nice quarter mare which is wonderful. She doesn know the first thing about horses though. so she likes the horse and i told her to come get riding lessons a few times to each her to work with the new horse. she didnt even know how to lead one and has never rode before. plez her husband wants to throw her on and thinks thats all she needed. so she gets lessons at my place for a week. now we deliver these horses to a lot where there is no power no water no nothing but a barn he built. i figured he would take care of them seeing he built a decent barn and was making effort to have animals. Guess i shouldnt think. so then we deliver and tracy is still uncomfortable but only when cowboy Jamie is around. I then went to there place and gave her lessons once a week . all was well.
Until i get a call these horses are crazy he says. so i went up to help him and i find these horses are locked up in a small stall fed in a very small amount and they are stir crazy it was nice out and not use to being locked up as they were. we worked the horses and they were fine.
Next call Jamie telling me to come over his mare was awful he says.. so we go over again and he was so afraid of this horse she just fed off of him. i told him to bring her back i would trade as you contracts says. he don't want to he wants to keep her, i told him she isn't liking him nor the stall all time to bring her back he was afraid of her and no reason to feed a animal he couldn't use. He refused and wasn't to breed it one day and the next he didn't know what to do. I called him trying to see how they was doin and he said we are dealing with her. Well about three weeks later i call one more time to see how things was and he agreed to come look at horses. he comes over and needless to find out he was more of a beginner than his wife. HE WAS SCARED TO DEATH OF HORSES!!!! and now this is my fault.
i later seen him at centerhall sale where he took this mare to and i bought her back through the sale. He proceeded to tell me after sale i owe him. WOW hows that he declined on trading, he took her to the sale and i bought her back fair and square. He thinks hes a bad a.... but hes not. He has no idea how to handle a horse and wants to bash everyone who sells him one and im no the first. As for his wifes horse i have her in my boarding barn one of his former employees bought her and he made money on her and sold her to be bomb proof to them and she has 3 kids and one with special needs. Now if i sold a bad horse why would he sell it to a family with child with special needs? read between lines when it comes to this know it all. Hes a beginner who knows nothing and wants to blame his stupidity on everyone else. GROW UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS AND STOP SLAMMING ME BECAUSE YOUR A COWARD!!!!!!
