Super easy Saddle sale

I recently purchased a saddle for my young Belgian Draft mare. Due to her continuing to grow and change shape I have had to purchase a second saddle within the space of only a few months. I contacted the saddle bank to enquire about selling the original saddle and was surprised at how simple it was. They were very responsive and provided all the options available for selling and what I needed to do. It was as simple as providing some information and photos and waiting for their offer. Once I had accepted the offer it was as easy as parcelling the saddle up and waiting for collection. The whole process from first contact to payment was around a week, couldn't have been any easier. Thank you

Selling saddle

I’ve never sold a saddle before and quite frankly was worried about the whole process!! The saddle bank staff were so helpful and friendly and the entire process was so simple and very quick payment! All you had to do was add some pictures and information about your saddle and you’ll get a quote in no time!

Selling saddle

Brilliant experience from start to finish , the saddle bank arranged collection of my saddle at no extra cost was kept updated on the collection time slot and payment was made into my bank a few days later after they had received the saddle

Very useful

I’ve sold three saddles via the saddle bank - all have been relatively hassle free. A few things I would change : 1) don’t make it mandatory to type in a figure that you’d accept for the saddle. Each time I’ve been offered just below the figure I’ve put which makes me think the default answer is to lowball the accepted figure even if low already. Removing this would make it fairer for the seller. 2) Be more transparent about when a saddle has sold. When using the commission option I was only told about the sale of the saddle after I chased up. Not when it actually occurred. Not a deal breaker but would have been helpful to know so that I could anticipate the money in advance. Other than that it’s a relatively easy process and a service I will probably use again :)

How the trial works

Saddles are permitted on a 5 day UK mainland trial. Simply add the saddle to your basket and proceed to check out. The trial starts on the day you receive the saddle.
Full payment is taken for the saddle at the point of check out. If the saddle fits – great! No further action required.

Is your fitter not coming until next week? No problem!
Select your delivery date at check out. Please note we recommend having the saddle delivered 2 working days before your saddle fitting appointment in case of any unexpected delays with the courier.

Sadly we are not able to offer a trial internationally at present. However, most of our international clients still find it cheaper to import a quality saddle from UK than to source one in their own country.
