Am waiting for them to get back to me with a shortlist of saddles as have saddler fitting Q for a dressage saddle this week. I'm excited but dubious as they have LOTS of expensive saddles and not so many under £500!

Anyone used them before?

I'm a bit narked off with them actually.:( I desperately need to sell my saddles, and contacted them. They say that if you email them with pictures and description of your saddle, they will a) give you a valuation and b) give a price which THEY will pay outright. I emailed, with lots of photos. They've never even got back to me! :mad: Not impressed! I need the money!! I hope their selling customer service is better than their buying/valuation customer service! (I thought many of their saddles were rather 'over priced'!

Wish I had a dressage saddle to sell you! :)

(Don't suppost you want a 18" 32 fit brown GFS Pro Event Extra or a 7X (YES XXXXXXX wide!) Balance GP do you...!?! ;))
 
Yes I used them last year and the service was absolutely wonderful. Because my saddles arrived on a Friday and I had to work all weekend they gave me an extra couple of days with them, and they then let me have another couple of days because I couldnt get the saddler out quickly enough to check the fit. They then sent their courier to uplift the saddle and gave me a trade in on my old one.

I would highly recommend them - I paid £575 for a saddle and it was in excellent condition.
 
Ahh Kis that's really bad, can you turn your GFS pro event into a 17.5" dressage saddle??? :D I love GFS saddles but only want a dressage atm!!

You may joke but I will send you photos of what a saddler did do to my old saddle to repair it!!! You and Paul will be shocked!
