Equestrian Car Boot Sales in France

[Woody Le Bois]

I have moved to France with my horse some time ago and I was wondering if anybody knows if there are any equestrian car boot sales here? If so how do I find one?
Thank you in advance

In my area, very few and far between.
Look for a rallye or Fete du Cheval, there may be a vide sellerie., where you could take a table.
People use local forums , French Entree or Anglo info, or leboncoin.
I have found the second hand market to be very different here in France.
Do you have a list to pm me with?

Hi and thank you for the reply.
I only have an old kieffer saddle to sell but i was mainly hoping to catch some bargains when/where is the fete du cheval?

You would need to see if you have a local Fete du cheval, either ask at your Club, or a local riding association, maybe the tourist office could advise.
Bargains are few and far between in the second hand market in my experience, second hand tends to mean NEW and is priced as such!
For your saddle, i would think Leboncoin might suit.

The fête des chevaux in Aquitaine tend to be held in the summer months as they like to almost guarantee good weather and spectators to view the horses. Haven't noticed vide selleries attached though.
Another good website is: http://www.chevalannonce.com/ and they have a forum equivalent to this one.
