It's about time we got Saffy a saddle of her own as she's been borrowing Jack's for the 9 months we've had her now. I need a lightweight (she's 15.3hh and son is 6'1") 18" medium umping saddle and would very much like a Prestige if I could only find one reasonably priced.

Aside from Saddles Direct which I'm watching and ebay does anyone have any suggestions about where to look?
 
Yeah. . . good luck with that. :( I'm looking for something similar but MW would also take a 17.5 - I've seen very few that weren't smaller seats and/or narrow width. It might be worth combing American ebay as well. Shipping isn't cheap but the pricing is a bit random between here and there, based a lot on relative popularity of makes, so sometimes relative bargains come up.
 
Measles - I can give you an email address of a lady that sold me my Prestige Saddle as she seems to get 2nd hand prestiges quite often (she offered to exchange if I wasnt happy with this saddle). She sold the Meredith for a reasonable price.
 
My pessoa isn't suiting my new horse - flipping typical!
17.5" and comes with adjustable gullet, I have M, MW & W plates for it.
Not a cheap saddle mind, but let me know if interested.
 
Have you called Stirling saddle fitters? They often have loads of different brands in 2nd hand ? My friend just got a 2nd hand passier from them for £800 and its in lovely condition.
Or ebay ? But thats hit and miss! Ill keep my eyes and ears open for you!

Daughter is 6 foot, with legs up to her armpits... her Prestige is for sale via Bridelpath International, think there is a pic of it on their website in the 2nd section. Its a 17.5, and I know they are the other end of the country from you, but I could get it back and send it up for you to try if you like:)
 
They seperated awhile ago but still have similar names ! I know its far for you there is a saddler in Haddington that has LOADS of saddles in the shop literally 100's so he might have something?
Its called Mains saddlery.

Hi,

I have a golden star prestige saddle 17.5 m for sale, it's currently with a saddlers but I could get it back? I'm about 5'10/5'11 and mostly leg which is very annoying when saddle hunting but I got along with it well...soo annoyed it doesn't fit the new one! :(

Ingilstoning this weekend on sun! What about you ?
Random Idea but why not print out an ad and put it in your lorry living window? Folk might see it at shows and contact you if they have something similar? Might not work but is free!
Does Central saddlery stock saddles?
Q
 
i have an 18'' very lightweight john whitaker saddle for sale in burgundy
only issue is that it's currently a M/N but can be adjusted for £50ish
i found somewhere to do it but saddler does not think it will fit my horse even after being made wider.
