i sold one recently, similar apart from mine was ISH rather than hannovarian.
he got 31 BD points in 3 months, qualified for summer regionals prelim & novice, % between 62-73. Easy in every way apart from a bit spooky hacking.
We got £5500 for him.

goodness i would have said you should have got more than that when you look at prices in the horse and hound and websites. espcially as qualified for regionals with good percentages.

Yup, but do they sell at the advertised prices?
I originally advertised mine at 8, not calls whatsoever, dropped the price to 6 and sold straight away.
Its a buyers market out there

i quite agree prices in this country are way over the top. thanks for that advice anyway

i had a ISH who was 10 and got 31 BD points, part qualified regionals (novice), placed area festivals(novice) and PC dressage and SJ teams, was always placed BD, he did also jump and sold him for £6500 with stubben jumping saddle and in the end gave them a few other bits

I think if you advertise for about 6k and see what you get, you might get offers. Or if you dont lower the price, its the technic we use.
