We'd
be happy to take your saddle on consignment.
We charge a 25% commission at the time of sale
and if we don't get it sold we'll ship it back
to you at our cost. Our 'rule of thumb'
on pricing used saddles is to take the current
'new' list price, divide by two, and adjust up
or down depending upon condition. New models
tend to hold their value quite well. Old or
discontinued models or saddles that have
damage or need repair work tend to be more
difficult to sell. Plain flap saddles, brown
dressage saddles, and saddles with hard seats
are definitely in the 'hard to sell' category!
We want to alert owners that we do send
saddles out for people to try, and the saddles
may get a bit of wear, but we find that people
are generally pretty careful with them. We
will assume responsibility for your saddle in
case of loss or damage. We feel that we can
get lots more saddles sold when people can try
them, and we do sell about 90% of what we take
in. We'd like to have your saddle for at least
90 days, and we will promote it on our website
so plenty of people will see it. Please make
sure you include your name, address and phone
number in the box so we know where to
send the check!
Please
keep our employees happy and do not pack your saddle with shipping peanuts!
