on the eldonian saddle I don't think the picture reflects the true age or quality of the saddle. if you zoom right in on the girth tabs they are very worn, that looks closer to the mark, given the price (seems very very cheap for an english leather saddle)

the top one looks ok for the price, although you can't tell the quality of leather, esp imported. I just googled the make and you can see some different saddles from the brand and if you zoom in on the leather, it varies a bit, looks a bit plasticy?

That's my opinion.

If you like Kieffer then you probably will not like the ride of the Santa Cruz and they are not hard wearing saddles- look tatty quickly.
The Eldonian is unlikely to fit a TB as it has a gathered panel which tends to roll off the horses back (Like stubbens do) and there is little room for adjustment so they tend to tip you back.
Will PM you the number of a fab place in Herts who can help you- she often has Kieffer in stock and PX no problem.
