Tall narrow natives, Arab?

I don't understand why they're asking stupid money for what they're advertising as a "project horse". Reading between the lines he sounds very nervous and this is probably making the owner nervous. He also does look quite poor - I think I'd be worming him as a first step! Shame they aren't asking a more sensible price as he's really near me so I could be the designated viewer!

That really is steep given the description. Maybe there are a lot of plus points that aren’t listed but...

Pity because if he was priced low, I would have him. The whole thing sounds very sad.
 
Are there any sites we haven't tried? Preloved, Gumtree, freeads, pets4homes, dragon driving, done deal, horse quest, horse mart, nfed, adhorse, h&h, where else is there to look!? I find trawling FB is really hard now as all the adverts don't say "for sale" explicitly.

?

(Though I couldn't help but notice....There's still a zebra on dragon driving. ?)

And on the subject of cheap, there's a 16.2 TB also on DD just listed for £400.
 
Could be worth approaching some reputable dealers with your criteria, they’d probably be better at finding something for you than we are

I woke at 3am from oh snoring so took myself into spare room and that Arab popped into my head while I was tossing and turning, I think I have a problem!

He was my first thought on waking, seems we have a similar problem. He is far too much money, I expect she paid plenty for him and wants to avoid losing money, trouble is he was probably looking well and it has all gone downhill so she will not get her money back and may take a while to realise that.

Poor boy. I don't get people who think 'I paid x for him and have spent y on him so he is worth x+y'

I picked up a horse at the local sales whose owner thought this way. She had paid about £5k and spent a load more on training and was utterly deluded about what crappy green horses go for in the ring (she didn't make reserve and we bought outside for £900!). I would imagine it's quite a common way of thinking.
