Bates AP 17.5 black saddle

I had my saddle advertised via other channels, however after attracting time wasters I was contacted by The Saddle Bank and given an offer to either sell direct to them or for The Saddle Bank to sell for me, I opted for the former, even through it was below what I was asking but the process was so easy and was collected at my address on a date convenient to me and the money was transferred after the saddle was assessed and was the agreed price. Can’t fault the process!

Hi Kay,

Thank you so much for your review.

We’re delighted to hear that we could provide a hassle free alternative after your experience with private selling. It’s wonderful to know that the outright purchase option gave you the convenience and certainty you were looking for, with collection arranged on a date that suited you and payment made promptly once the saddle had been assessed.

We completely understand that outright sale prices can differ from private sale expectations, so we’re especially pleased that the simplicity and ease of the process made it worthwhile for you.

Thank you again for your kind words and support. We really appreciate it!

Best Wishes,
The Saddle Bank Team
