    S.M.S Saddler in Kent required to write report on saddle

    Yes it does! Mine was off the peg. If personalised (i.e. made to measure) I understand that the 14 day return period may not apply.

    S.M.S Saddler in Kent required to write report on saddle

    Thanks for help all. Managed to speak to a very helpful lady at S.M.S who advised me of the 14 day returns period. Small claims court it is. I don't understand how people can run businesses like this!

    S.M.S Saddler in Kent required to write report on saddle

    I responded within a week in writing, advising that I would like to return saddle and get a full refund. I tried to arrange to meet to return the saddle, however, he said he would not accept returns. I am now in the position of having said I would like to return saddle, however, I have not been...

    S.M.S Saddler in Kent required to write report on saddle

    I was well within 14 days (I asked for a refund within 6 days) but the saddler is saying I have no right to return. Unfortunately it looks like I could end up in the Small Claims court on this one. Thank you will take a look :)

    Hi Oz I posted a thread on saddlers in the south east a week ago. Just wondered if you could pm me? My inbox is empty (new to all of this and didn't realise that there was a size restriction). Thanks

    Saddlers in the South East

    I'm worried I have to return the saddle within 14 days of giving notice that I would like a refund. This particular individual is untrustworthy. If I take saddle myself I anticipate he will deny me returning it and if I send it special delivery he will probably claim it is damaged. Any thoughts...

    Saddlers in the South East

    I would also be interested to hear people's views on consumer rights (return/ refund). I had my saddle for less than a week when I asked the saddler for a refund. The saddle is not made to measure. Many thanks.

    Saddlers in the South East

    Hello I've recently bought a saddle that does not fit my horse. The saddler who fitted the saddle is disputing this. Does anyone know of a saddler who would be willing to review and prepare a report on the saddle to help my case? I am based in East Sussex. Thanks for any suggestions. :)
