PMSL!!
its been going for a couple of days but i think im leading with 700 something views (not that many replies!!) i'll give you £2.50 for the ladybird you have there though!
I only asked because I know what I paid for Doll, and seeing how much people were guessing for other horses, and looking at horses for sale etc, I thought I would see what people thought Doll was worth. Have to say, am glad that a few people think she would produce a good foal with the right stallion, as we are thinking about possibly putting her in foal at some point in the future.
Oooh now theres an idea, illegal organ trade! LOL!
Perhaps people might be able to help me with this one? She is NOT for sale but it would be interesting to see what people would value her at....
She has been broken to ride and drive. Great to clip/shoe/box. Hacks alone and in company but does have a funny thing about tractors. NOT NOVICE RIDE, would suit confident competent rider.

I find the how much posts really interesting, just made me giggle coming in here today and seeing LOADS of them! Was only jesting, not having a dig at anyone
I whacked mine on last night, then read further down and saw a whole bunch. I never price any because I'm totally useless. My husband won't let me talk money buying horses, he does it because I hate bargaining. When I sell I make it clear from the beginning that my price is firm so everyone knows where they stand and there's none of this pussyfooting about.
How do other people come up with a value?
A basic price for size/age/type? Then add a bit for schooling/experience? Competition points? A bit more for colour or breed? Take some away for vices/ailments? Some more for tack & rugs?
