Every week we scour the Internet searching for a particularly juicy bargain on a high quality used western saddle and feature it here on the WSG Saddle Blog. The saddles featured are listed for sale on ebay as of the date of the post.
The Western Saddle Guide is not the seller of the saddles featured and does not make any representations about them. We encourage all potential buyers to do their own due diligence on the seller and the saddle before purchasing.
Last week’s Pick, a solid youth barrel/trail saddle from Dakota - has generated 13 bids so far, with the current bid at $355 with a day or so left. This would be a great Christmas gift for some lucky girl or boy.
This week we’ve found a sturdy Circle Y saddle from the days when Circle Y built some of the best production saddles available. This one has a few blemishes but they’re just on the surface. The foundation is still solid.
This is a Circle Y Roping saddle with a bull-hide covered wood tree with QH bars and weighs in at 36lbs. It has a 16 inch suede seat, floral/basket weave tooling, and supple leather.
This is a great saddle for someone who likes the sturdiness and strong foundation of the older saddles. Obviously there are quite a few folks out there that fit that bill as there are already 13 bids on this saddle. I think they’re on to something.
