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.
Checking out our Picks each week will give you some great insight into buying used saddles. Make sure to click through to the actual listing to see all of the photos and description from the seller.
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:
I knew last week’s pick – a really nice 12″ Billy Cook Youth Barrel Trail Saddle – would generate a lot of action … and rightfully so. It started out with a number of low bids but ended up going for $306 after 26 bids. Still a good price for a hard-to-find saddle.
THIS WEEK’S PICK:
This week we’ve gone back a ways for a vintage Big Horn saddle. I love the old Big Horns – they’re right up there with the old Simcos and Herefords.
This week’s pick is a 15″ Big Horn Trail Saddle with that great vintage style -Â darker oil, overall floral tooling, low cantle, square skirts. A true classic.
The seller says the saddle has full QH bars which will fit most stocky quarter horse types. This would be a nice saddle for trail riding as a main or extra saddle.
The seller has the price listed at $400 but is accepting offers. If you’re interested, I’d make a lesser offer and see if you can’t sneak this one out for a deal.
