£200?

Not sure tbh.

I sold two lovely saddles on Ebay recently - both made around the 150 and 200 mark.

I may have to sell my Bates one which has an interchangeable gullet, so will hopefully get around £400 for that.

I wouldn't pay £200 for it, it looks dreadfully marked and worn in places. £125 tops for me

|I sold an old E Jeffries in a similar style & condition recently & got 250. Ebay can be pretty good for selling saddles but stick a reserve of 150 on if you are going down that route.

it does need a good clean and oil to be fair there are no major scuffs or scratches that im sure wouldnt look much better with oiling it!

ive just bought it from the 2nd hand section in the tack shop.... just was wondering if i got a good deal...

What did you pay then?

 

[joanne1920]

i paid £130 with the tack shop taking 25% so the seller is getting a £100 was up for sale for £350 or sensible offer, the seller is my riding instructor and she says shes happy to get £100 for it... but i dont want her to think im ripping her off, if you know what i mean?

 

[lexiedhb]

Seems reasonable to me... going from what others have said!
