How to sell second-hand EVA stable mats - advice please?

[Shilasdair]

Hi all
I've got enough EVA stable mats (the Fieldguard M3 ones) for about three stables - but obviously can't sell on ebay as I can't post the damn things.
Any ideas on how I can sell them second-hand (I'm in Glos if you know anywhere I could take them)?
Thanks
S

Oh, I thought you had to post everything on ebay (they are quite light for stable mats, but still!).
Will look again - and at Herefordequestrian.co.uk.
Thankies

Local free-ads, preloved, gumtree, freecycle.

Nope you can do Pick up only too

Hereford equestrian also covers the Glos and Worc area

You're miles away but please pm me! I am currently looking to buy for 2 12 x12ft stables that I'm having built!!

Is Hades anywhere near LifeisaFlophole, which is where I am currently residing?

I'm in need of more mats, for my collection of fanged and four legged beasties

I'm not far away and I need a stable's worth.

Well, the mats are in Ciren today, and I'll have to go collect them tomorrow if I can find a van....
Can't keep them in Hades as they would melt...

Sounds like you have folks closer


Good point re. melting.


See, no brain me.

Maybe it went to Hades without telling me and it melted whilst it was there. Would account for a lot...

I have just counted them 18 are full size Maxibed underbed mat 4' x 3' (1.22m x 0.915m) x 1 3/8inch thick (33mm).
There's also about 4 that have been cut down by a few inches along one side (stable was funny size).
What should I advertise them for? Does £200 for the lot (buyer to collect) sound reasonable?

As a rough guide brand new EVA mats 6ft x 4ft (1.82m x 1.22m) x 22mm thick retail at about £50.00 each. With 18, if they are in good condition your will probably get your hand snapped off at £200 - To be honest I would go with Gumtree or similar more local based advertising which will be free - how about the local tack shop.
