Price advice please...

[Thomasina01]

I may be interested in buying a riding school horse who is approx 20 years old (I have know this horse years) and as far as I am aware has had no major concerns health wise (Horse just has attitude which is why I love him!)
Would be used as a hacking horse.

What kind of price do you think I may be looking at?
(owner is loaning pony at mo and mentioned once this loan is over he may have to go!)

Anything over 20 would be a £1 horse for me.

I would expect it to be gifted.

I paid £10 for something similar.

 

[SusieT]

500 at most.

 

[Baluga]

I wouldn't pay more than £100

Thanks for your replies.

I honestly did not think I would have to pay very much at all.
I suppose I will have to wait and see whats said!

Thanks again.

Play it cool if you want to buy him, telling you "he may have to go" sounds like emotional blackmail...

 

[Archangel]

I would offer £200. Hope you get him

I paid £350 for an ex riding school horse who I knew and wanted to give him a semi retirement home for hacking. The price was what his tack and rugs were worth but on paper I offered £350 for the horse including all tack and rugs.

Thanks for all your replies......

I am buying him, he is going to be mine! and I am absolutely chuffed to bits.... Not paying much and I am getting his tack too..... but he will be all mine !!

I am very very excited!
