- You return the signed form to us and pay the following fees:
- $25.00 to clean and condition your saddle in preparation for resale.
- $15.00 to create a digital photograph and a custom description of your saddle.
- Upon receipt of your signed form and payment, our sales team actively pursues a buyer for your saddle as follows:
- We post the description and picture of your saddle on our website.
- We register your saddle with our Used Saddle Network, which includes other equestrian retailers throughout the country.
- We advertise our used saddles in various equestrian publications, through on-line networking and sales channels, at shows and saddle fitting clinics.
