Anyone heard of this make of English saddle?

[JingleTingle]

I had been expecting a very exciting delivery of my new Paul Jones saddle. Today the box arrived, I unpacked it to find NOT a Paul Jones saddle but a make I have never heard of! The brass disc says 'Eurohunter - Hand Crafted In England'

I have tried googling this maker and only come up with an Australian synthetic saddle. Has anybody heard of this make of English Saddle please? the nail head buttons are bright yellow ovals with a stylised flash running across it in a brass colour that looks vaguely horse like.

I had a quick look and it seems they are both two different makes?

Thank you Indie 999. I am now being told they are made by Paul Jones but for a company over here in Kildare and that is the name they are sold under. However, I can't find a single review, for sale or sold trace of them anywhere! Or a website for the company that is supposed to be marketing them. Very odd!

You could try contacting a saddler and ask advice. If not happy about the saddle then couldn't you return it for a refund if it is not what you ordered?

I am doing this - I had ordered a (replacement for a previous one that saddler fitted in wrong size!) Paul Jones Gatcombe (and paid for) - the unknown brand one in a completely different style is what he actually sent me!

I am at a loss why he did this - and I wondered if it is a cheaper version that he was trying to fobb me off with.

He has now agreed to send me the correct saddle but hasn't really come up with a reasonable explanation, other than that PJ also makes them, as to the reason that he felt he would get away with sending the totally different saddle under a different brand name?

Shan't be using this one again or recommending him thats for sure!
