Buying from The Saddle Bank

Once you have found a Black Country saddle that suits your needs on from our wide selection, you can proceed to check out online to place your order. You may need to notify your bank that you are purchasing from a UK company so they allow the transaction to go through.

If you are unable to find the exact model and size you are looking for, you can set up an alert here to be notified as soon as one comes in stock. 

Why buy from The Saddle Bank

The Saddle Bank prides itself on offering customers quality saddles, competitively priced and delivered quickly to your door. We have thousands of reviwes across a number of platforms including Facebook and Trustpilot. 

Saddles are provided with a PDF saddle inspection report so you know your saddle has been checked and inspected. You are also able to accessorize your saddle with girths, stirrup leathers and bridles to complete the ride. 

Shipping

Shipping to the US is competitively price and usually takes around 3 days to arrive to you. Saddles are shipped with UPS using a fully tracked, and insured service.

For orders received before 11am GMT, the saddle will be dispatched the same working day (orders received after 11am Friday will be dispatched on the Monday). Once your order has been received, the saddle will be prepared and boxed up with plenty of protection. UPS will then collect it from The Saddle Bank and it will be on it’s way to you!

Once your Black Country saddle arrives in the USA you will be notified, and asked to pay customs/import charges. The amount varies depending on the value of the saddle. For saddles under the value of £560 there are no charges. For saddles over this value it is usually around 3% of the saddle value. Therefore it is really competitive to ship a saddle into the US from the UK, especially as you can take advantage of our lower price points.

We often get asked if we can declare a lower value to avoid charges. Sadly we are not able to do this as the value we declare affects the insurance. Should the parcel be lost or damaged we would not be able to claim for the full value, therefore it is important we declare the true value.

Once the charges have been paid, UPS will deliver your saddle and you can start riding.

What next?

Hopefully you and your horse will love your new Black Country saddle! At The Saddle Bank we recommend having a local saddle fitter check the saddle suits your horse and you. We would love you to let us know how you are getting on and leave us a review.

We also love to see photos of your horses in their saddles so please do send us some photos and we would love to share them to our Facebook and Instagram page.

My saddle isn’t suitable, what can I do?

Unfortunately, due to shipping costs and timescales, we are unable to offer trials to international customers. However this does not mean you will be stuck with a saddle you can’t use. Even with the shipping costs and customs charges, saddles bought from the UK often still work out cheaper than what is available in the USA. Therefore you can sell your saddle and even make a profit. If you are struggling, let us know and we can point you in the direction of a tack shop who may be able to help.

I can’t find a suitable saddle on your website, can you still help me?

Yes! We have a notification page here where you can set up an alert to be notified as soon as the saddle you are looking for comes in stock.
