Can't seem to sell the boys- what next?

[shadowboy]

I have my two ponies for sale- I only want to sell one of them- so the first to sell goes- the other stays. One of them MUST go by the end of August as we are moving. But other than 3 emails I've had no interest! I need the money from the sale of one of them in order to pay some of the moving bills. I have them advertised in Horsemart.co.uk Stabletalk.co.uk and thehorseexchange.com and in the local countrywide.

Not a nibble- what next? Keep putting adds up? take to auction? change the price? I really don't know what to do? anyone been through the same situation?

Have you tried Horsequest, IME, that's where horses sell the fastest. Or H&H of course.

I'd love to sell there- much better quality site BUT at £55 for an add for two for 30 days its a massive cost (one of the reasons why I'm selling one) unless they offer second month free etc /something like that I can't really warrent the spend

I had a lovely pony that I was struggling to sell locally. Was quite hard up, and kept gettingtotally the wrong people come and look at him.

Put an add in H & H with a pic, yes expensive, but several promising calls the day it came out and sold to the first person who saw him. Worthwhile IMO.

You get what you pay for....
If you pay out for good add, you will get good viewers/buyers.

I second H&H, if you just do an onlne add its not too exspensive, and to be honest most of us horse hunt on line anyway. . I Had a TB who sold in the 1st week. I had been on Horse mart and the local free adds for weeks and weeks.

Another thought would be PC classified
