Second hand rubber matting?

[WildRider]

Gosh it's been ages since I've posted on HHO!

I've been given the chance to buy second hand rubber matting, and have been asked to make an offer. I have no idea what would be appropriate so hoping you good people can give me some input?! It's the 'jigsaw' style interlocking mats, in good nick, and apparently cost £250 two years ago.

Tea and jaffa cakes for all interested parties!

EVA interlocking mats? They go for up to £50 each. How many are you looking at? I was wary of these as I think you need a big bed so they don't move but they're fab for ease and a piece of cake to take out and clean.

If it's the same stuff, I'd offer £25 per mat, max.

I paid £300 for a full stable of interlocking EVA. it's still going strong 7 years later. I'd probs offer £150 for a 12 x 12 stables worth of interlocking EVA.

Hmmm... I had assumed it was bo standard rubber rather than EVA matting (EVA being much more to my liking. I'll have to check today!

As for stable size, I'd say our boxes are 12'x12' (same yard).

Thanks guys!

12 x 12 means 6 mats of 6x4 normally, having just done mine with the traditional heavy solid rubber. Ask what type of mats they are.

There's a lot of rubbish out there, I was gutted to travel 10 miles having been promised it was 'proper' to see lightweight compressed rubber.
