My 'new' dressage saddle is light brown, making my newish bride redundant! One of the girls at the yard is interested but obviously wants a price, so what do you think?

So, its a Rhinegold Double Bridle, still looks like new as only been used for a few comps, but is now nice and supple, you can get them new for £62 on ebay

A V shaped Diamante very bling browband, I paid £40 new

Extra pair of Treadstone half rubber reins I paid £28 for new

Doesn't look like a double to me? Am I missing something or did you remove a bit of it?

Anyhow, it's a shame when selling second hand you never get much, and on ebay it's a real buyer's market isn't it?

So, about £50 worth a shot I guess inc the reins?
 
Keep it! It would be silly to take a loss on it. What about if you end up with a matching saddle in the future? If you are intending to ride for the next 20 or 30 years selling nice stuff seems a little short sighted to me.

It is a double, but I have'nt used it as a double, hence having the extra reins! Sorry should have explained myself better!

I can always look to buy black again if I ever got another black saddle, and if I ever have a different horse, it may not fit anyway. And I already have a ridiculous amount of tack...............
