How much off the price would you expect for a headshaker controlled with nose net?

Be wary head shakers can get worse as they get older and it is classed as an unsoundness and horse can get written off for loss of use with head shaking so be careful.
 
Umm, I would not buy a horse that was a headshaker, even if they said it was controlled with the net. If I loved everything else about it, I would say it's value would be halved. I just looked at a horse for £7500. When I pointed out the sarcoid on its tummy they dropped the price to £5000 without me even asking.

Thas because you'll need the difference and a mortgage to pay the vets to treat that 1 and when it gets more. I know someone who bought a horse with sarcoids and he had multiple ones come up in a matter of weeks, he was having treatment for a huge one between his back legs, if they get them in the saddle/bridle or anywhere they could rub you're **** plus flys can spread them
