People selling horses

Why oh why do they not put age or height in their adverts?
How are you supposed to guess how big/old it is, when it is standing in the middle of the field. It could be 12hh or 17hh.
Let's be honest, who would actually phone up for something that you didn't know how big or old it was?
I know I wouldn't, I wouldn't want to waste my or the sellers time.

I find that really silly, when people miss out basic information. The more info an advert has the more likely I'd be to phone up about it, and it should at least have age, height, breed [or type - LW/MW etc] and gender, even if absolutely nothing else.

I simply don't understand why people would leave out stuff like that, and of course other information, like what it does or has done, if its good to shoe and box and clip, if it hacks and goes in traffic etc. Before I call about a horse I want to know if its one that might actually suit my purpose, it is so stupid not to put sufficient detail in!

madness, cos half the people tht ring wont be interested cos its not the right size! waste of time, id not bother ringing, and i would assume it was rather old if they dont want to put it in ad!?

Amazing how many forget to write down what part of the country they're in with only a mobile contact number too.
