OFOH - Are Any Of The Horses For Sale???

[randira]

Was listening to a conversation at my yard this morning ( the YO is a well known dressage rider and knows everyone) and she had heard a rumor that J-Lo was for sale. Any one else heard any rumors?

 

[allijudd]

yep we heard that to...was some posts a few days ago........

 

[severnmiles]

Not rumours.

She's in this weekd H&H.

 

[randira]

wot page?

 

[greasedweasel]

page 109..... can't even imagine the price tag!!!!

Amazed to see the fantastic jumping pony Colton Maelstrom advertised too.... thought there would always have been someone waiting in the wings ready to grab that little mare!

Wasn't she featured in H&H just the other week, her owners saying they were looking forward to finding a rider for her for next year?
She's getting on a bit now, isn't she? Wonder what she's worth now, at her age? Funny time to be selling her, surely?

 

[greasedweasel]

I find it a little odd she is advertised TBH...... I suspect she is still worth LOTS and LOTS and LOTS!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Weezy]

Advertised so there can be a bidding war no doubt

Interesting to read she has had an embryo transfer - very wise IMO!

 

[greasedweasel]

On the subject of absolute tools of jumping ponies.... does anyone know what happened to Strawberry Mojo. Was she not ET'ing too?

Yeah POA, I'm tempted to ring them over and over putting on a different accent each time to ask "how much?"

Strawberry Mojo up until about 3 years ago could be found every other weekend competing at Rockhampton and winning every class it went in, was an amazing pony. She did her tendon in (I think) def. something to her leg and they haven't been able to get her in foal. Not sure about ET though

 

[MillionDollar]

Yes, i was very very suprised to see Colton Mealstrom advertised as well. I thinks shes in her late teens/ early twenties now but she has still years left in her at top level SJ, Metric is a top 138cm pony and is now 28!! She'll still be worth a fortune, when she was last sold she was sold for a whopping £250,000!!!! There will be a huge fight over her, thats for sure.

 

[dieseldog]

By now I would imagine they wished they had put the price on it, their own fault if they are getting loads of calls. Not sure what it achieves by using POA. The first question I always ask is how much, and then either say thanks or find out some more info. They are wasting my time and phone bill by not putting the price in the ad.

 

[dieseldog]

There was a post on here a minute ago from marmite, which has been removed - I was replying to that

 

[PapaFrita]

I thought she was about 8. Am I mistaken?
Anyone got a link to the ad?

OOpsie. Please ignore. Thought you were talking about J-LO... then read post properly.
Many apologies

Edited because I can't read

 

[JaneyB]

J-Lo's also on horse quests website under eventers

 

[Rambo]

Hmmmmmmm....
J-Lo...£6k...perhaps £7.5k to someone who's keen,


Colton Mealstrom...you won't see much change from £150k

 

[MagicMelon]

Who on earth is J-Lo??????

 

[giggles mum]

I think in Jlo's ad on horsequest she was 10k

not 100% sure tho.

 

[xspiralx]

I agree - I mean you are going to have to tell them the price anyway, so why not put it in the ad to get people who ARE able to pay the price!

I mean otherwise its just timewasting phonecalls, or even people who can't afford to buy the horse turning up to ride!

I don't understand it, and if I see POA on an advert I always assume its too much!

<span style="colorurple">Yup, totally serves them right, I wonder did they think some eejit who'd seen the show and thought "I can do that!" would phone and offer them whatever they wanted for her?</span>

 

[Argie_Spew]

People use POA so that every tom dick and harry doesnt see the price.
When we advertised Dol there was no way a price was going to be put on the add, as we didnt want all of our contacts knowing what we were asking!
