I have seen them on ebay, and the description sounds good... I was half tempted to buy one too see what they were like, but decided against it.
 
I've had two saddles off that company, they're great sellers. I've not had that saddle but they seem to sell good quality stock for the price, judging from what I bought. If you don't like it you'd be able to sell it on for the same price I think.

Good point about selling and returning i might just have a think about it. Not being a tight a*$e but the Wintec types are changeable which is handy no matter what but these are pretty cheap...hmm will have a think.
 
It looks like one of the many saddles being made in India for companies in Europe.
The clue are the stirrup bars, the cheaper less quality stirrup bars are not solid but riveted together as this saddle's stirrup bars are. They use these type of bars on all the cheap Indian saddles. I would be very cautious about buying it and stick with a better well known make, Wintec, Thorowgood,etc at least you know what you are buying.
 
Yuck for the same reasons as cremedemonthe (who is a saddler and fitter in case you didn't know, I'm a fitter) - I'd never recommend anything cheaper than Wintec/TG in synthetic, or K&M etc in leather. You just can't make a decent, safe, consistent quality saddle for less than those cost.

But more specifically, I can't see how a saddle that is "soft" or flexible enough to compress under a rider's weight can, at the same time, support that rider's weight and spread it well.
