Hi there,
Just wondering if you could please advise me on the most successful websites to advertise second hand saddles?
I have an 'as new' event saddle (used twice!) for sale and have not had much luck advertising in tack room windows - quite a few people have messed me about and let me down last minute.
I've seen one similar on eBay which did sell earlier this month so I know my asking price is about right, and I've checked this with my local saddler (who unfortunately won't take it back).
Also have a Wintec saddle which has been taking up space in my study for the past year, so would be great if I could pop them both somewhere and shift them ASAP!
Would love some advice - PM me if needs be.
Thanks so much!

ebay is pretty good for buying saddles but I don't know about selling. Have you thought about emailing saddlesdirect and seeing what they'd buy it off you for? I think there's a section on there for private sellers too, rather than going through their usual procedure

Also, there's the usual like preloved, freeads and there is a horsey forum where you can advertise your tack and bits and pieces for free but I can't remember which one it is. I'm sure someone will help :)

Out of interest what size/colour/width is it and who is it made by?
 
Hi Maletto, thanks so much for the advice - a friend of mine tried selling a very similar saddle on eBay and only managed to shift it after a number of price drops and 6 months of relisting so not sure I can wait that long! I know it's great for bargains as a buyer but perhaps not for a seller lol!

Will contact saddles direct as I'd love to shed the hassle of selling it myself. Shall take a look at preloved and freeads too - never come across these before so thanks for the advice!
