Trading a saddle for a horse--want your opinion...?

Question

someone wants to trade me a horse for my saddle, all in all I think it is a reasonable trade for both sides. my question is that I would have to drive 4-5 hours to pick up the horse and bring her the saddle...I don't want to get there and have her say that she doesn't like the saddle/or it doesn't fit, and she no longer wants to trade...then I would be out the gas $ and 8-10 hours driving time. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

yes if i were u i would definetly trade!! a horse is worth and 8 hour drive.. y dont u ask the women to meet u half way with the horse and tell her it will cost u a lot of gas money. but anyway i would do anything to have a horse...i ♥ horses. so yea trade...

Answer 2

Tell her that you want her guarantee before you take the trip.

Answer 3

send her a picture of it first to see if she likes it. that way you will know it will be worth the trip. good luck.

Answer 4

how much has upkeep been on the saddle since you bought it? how much do you expect the overall cost of keeping a horse to be over the life of it? doesn't seem like such a good deal to me.
