Such a nice horse...why can't I sell her??? Advice appreciated!!

I think £6000 or £6500 look better as a price as 6800 is nearly £7000 in a buyers eyes.

. As a buyer/seller I see 6,800 as 5,000.

RR, she looks like a nice horse and you have been given some good advice here. This may sound silly, but looking at that advert you have of her, I would actually be put off by the flatwork photo (yes I know it's only a photo and not a good overview); it looks like she is doing something totally weird with her head.

I'd personally market her elsewhere and for a flat £7,000.
 
I also think she looks a cracking mare. I agree a better jumping pic would be good. I would prefer to see her breeding in the advert.
 
Echo much of what has been said already. While the photos aren't terrible IMO a little more effort could make a big difference to the ad. I would definately put her breeding on too. As has been said a price of 6500, 7000 or even 6750 just seems better than 6800 to me and the change of advert to horsequest or horse and hound should help sell her. I think she looks a very nice type.
 
I'd drop the price to £6500, advertise her in Horse and Hound and get some better pictures.

The ones you have are reasonable, but I would like to see a better flatwork one, a conformation shot, and one of her jumping - but with a more professional looking jump, where you can see the whole of the fence, and it is not propped up on the arena fence. Get a good picture of her jumping a decent size oxer.

I reckon if you do all those things she will sell pretty quick.
 
Just agree with all of the above except for the chestnut mare bit !.

I would drop the price to £6500 or up to £7000 as most people search in £500's. Also better photo's and try different sale sites.She looks a lovely mare and I'm sure she will be sold soon.

Good Luck
 
Nothing to add, just wanted to say if i was looking for another horse i would definitely be straight on the phone to you! she is a stunner and i have rather a thing for chestnut mares.....
