I have just been convinced to buy a new saddle (The HHO user knows who she is and I shall kill her later

) so I need to sell my wow but as it is 2 years old and has lots of different stuff not sure what to charge. I have the following:
Competitor saddle in black can't remember what size seat (might be 16.5 OH thinks 17) and no idea what panels etc....will need to check before advertising obviously.
Has two sets of stirrup leathers in diff sizes (24 and 32).
Has 2 sets of flaps - jumping fix block and VSD flaps.
Leather curved girth.
Pump kit.
So what should I charge? Do wow's hold their value or not? It was hardly used first year and this year been used more but looks in great condition. Jump flaps have hardly been used at all. Would it be better to sell everything separate?
Also where shall I advertise it as a bit worried about Ebay recently due to new policy of not releasing your cash.
Sorry for all questions but really need to sell asap as have to pay for new saddle soon (will just have to go on credit card if not!

It's not a named one - was one by 'tackman' he is called, he makes his own I think.
I know some horses love these Wow saddles but mine has always been a bit iffy. I bought the saddle originally with different panels and then had them changed after about 6 months as she wasn't going well in it (to be fair she was off work with a kick injury for a few months so wasn't used much). Anyway has gone better with these new panels but I have been a bit unsure myself. Tried new saddle tonight and loved it. Now though have to get shot of the Wow as OH has never been a big fan, he shares my horse and he likes this new saddle - plus he's paying

That's why we have lots of stuff for the saddle as he orginally liked the jumping flaps and he needed different length leathers to me

(he's 6ft1 and I'm 5ft 1!).
 
Lol - I shall send it over to you then if it is worthless

Have looked on ebay but they are with starting prices of about £600- £700 - we originally bought it for 3xs that and have also bought the other flaps since then. I'm just wondering maybe Wow's don't hold their value? OH will kill me if I only get £600
