I have decided to sell my pessoa saddle as it doesn't fit Bud and i could do with releasing money to upgrade my other saddles.
It's in very good condition i bought it new about 5 years ago and i haven't used it that much, it just has natural wear from stirrup leathers.
Where should i advertise it and how much for?? If i go down ebay route how many photos should i put on and should i put a reserve on it??

Thanks

Photo wise just think about what you would want to see if you were in the market for a saddle. Side view, underside, under the flaps showing straps were all in order, rear, anything with the Pessoa name. Probably 4-5 photos should do it. Make sure it's cleaned before the photos are taken.

Decide on a reserve but start the initial auction off at a fairly low price to get people interested. Definately have a reserve because you don't want to give it away. Some people don't want to used ebay but there are buyers all over the world viewing so the world is your market place.

A Pessoa saddle should sell very well, there are not many for sale at one time.

Good Luck

adtrader, ebay, local tack shop?

Ive sold a few saddles on ebay, sold a Bates all purpose for £500 a few months ago, only paid £300 for it off ebay so was a good bargain, def set a reserve unless you want people getting the kind of bargains I did!
