Was browsing through adverts, as you do

Came a cross a 8 year old grey gelding, 16.3hh. has competed up to pre-novice eventing (no record avaliable) and the picture they use of him isnt the best, jumping about 1m max and bit dangly in front over jump. Price?




£30,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is that all ?


Bargain !!

 

[titch]

Ahhh...but they say the horse has 'potential', therefore its a bargain!!

It's crazy how much some people value their horses! There's a horse next to the one you've found on horsequest that is 6, has points from novice and ready to go intermediate for £20k...I know which one I would prefer!!

on horsequest, eventers, novice. Its a grey horse with dangly front legs

 

[CorvusCorax]

Let's hope there is an errant '0' in there by mistake

 

[Apercrumbie]

The horse is jumping about 2'6 badly!

I have to say, never having looked for that level of horse I am shocked at the very high prices for Novice. I know that Novice is a very good level but that is a lot of money for something that probably won't pay for itself in winnings - not that most people aim for that. I will stick with my cheap and cheerful boys thank you!

 

[CaleruxShearer]

I saw that one last night!

 

[DarkHorseB]

Yes I saw it too and just assumed it is someone who doesn't really want to sell!!

 

[Katie__Connie]

Please tell me thats a typo!!

[Donkeymad]

Probably a typo

 

[DarkHorseB]

Definitely not a typo! I see he has now been changed from £30k to £25k....

Jesus!! If you carry on down the page there is a fab bay for 11,000!! I no what id prefere! x

I rather liked the palomino at the top - have always dreamed of breeding palomino foals

Don't think I could ever justify spending that kind of money on a horse but you are right there are alot better deals out there have seen some nice sorts for a fraction of that!!
