my friend is selling her very genuine 12.2 pony whom she bought at 3yrs had professionally broken and schooled, who is now 10 and has taught the whole family to ride. She was out at the weekend jumping 2.9ft. Shes asking £1700 but will take £1500 for her - anyone have any ideas on where else we can advertise her/what we can change. (i will talk to her about the spelling!)

be nice please shes a lovely girl - as you can see just VERY outgrown!

her ads here on horsemart..

Maybe put a little less in the ad, put the main points instead of her life story as I got a bit bored and lost half way through.

And maybe some better pictures of the little girls riding rather than someone who is far too big!
 
I would only use the 1st and 3rd photos and seriously edit the ad.

Something like.....

Much loved 12.2hh section B by ............... Straightforward and safe ride- trustworthy with beginners or could excel with a more experienced child to PC etc- loves to jump.
This striking pony has a fantastic temperament, is easy to do in all ways including hacking, loading, catching, shoeing etc.
Been in the family for 7 yrs- very sad sale as she is totally over-grown and ready to be loved by someone small again

I would advertise her on the pony club website. It only costs £10 and gets loads of 'the right' type of visitor for a pony like your friends.

Dont think thats a bad price.. we paid that for 14.2 cob 5 years ago with no tack or rugs.
