Just sorted through all the millions of items of horse related things I have, and have FAR too much!!

So, I have decided to sell it all.

What I was wondering is;

Would it be better to do a second hand sale at my yard (more than big enough, but no indoor area)

Also, if I was to do my own sale, what would be the best day, time etc etc to do it on?

Who would come to the sale, either to buy or sell??

What price entrance fee would you be prepared to pay (would be for a charity, not sure if they have set prices)

And anything else anyone can think of?

Thank you all!

You can run one for the Charity Spinal Research (there was a post a while back).

We get a few in our area, they are usually at the weekend in the afternoon.
I think you charge people something like £5 to set up a stall and buyers come in free.

I would come as a buyer as I already sold all my stuff.

Word of advice - keep all non sale areas locked up or supervised. Amazing how things walk off when you are not looking :(
 
Yeah, it would be like a proper sale lol. Sorry, didn't explain very well! lol

Want people there to buy and people to sell, or would be pretty pointless! lol

Now's a great time to hold a horse boot sale and have a Spring clean :)

Saddle Up for Spinal Research is asking riders from across the country to organise their own horse boot sale in aid of the charity. You can charge £5 per pitch or table and £1 entry and donate the money to Spinal Research.

You can also make money for yourself by selling off any unwanted gifts or old tack.

We'll send you a fundraising pack with hints and tips on how to organise your event as well as support materials such as banners and posters. Please contact me on isabel@spinal-research.org or call 01483 898786 if you'd like a pack or further information.

Thanks ever so much :)
