First round.....

UPDATE: A new page has been created for the blog called "For Sale". Please click on the link below the picture header for the most current list of available items and prices. Everything must be gone by May 2011. All prices are OBO.

I do have some “breaking news” (non-vet school related…*sigh*) that I’ll post on later.
I usually try to avoid using the blog as some sort of classified site, but here’s the deal. I’m moving. I’m going to be going to school. As a result, I will have less space, less time, and less money. A lot of stuff needs to go.

I’ve done a first round through the horse stuff, and I’m planning doing at least 2 more. Originally, all this was going in a local tack sale in April, but I’m tired of seeing the pile in my living room, and I'm moving my horse this weekend (oops – did I let that slip?), so I’m going to have to sell more stuff faster…..

So here’s the deal. I’m giving my blog readers first look at the list because most of this first round of stuff is something a fellow endurance rider can appreciate. What doesn’t sell by April will go into the tack sale. What doesn’t sell by May will go in the Yard Sale, and what doesn’t sell by June will go to the local freecycle list.

If you want something, you must e-mail me directly at bootsandsaddles4mel@gmail.com, or leave contact info in a comment with what item you want. First come first served. I can’t respond to comments, so if there’s no contact info in your comment, it doesn’t count.

I accept pay pal and Money Orders. If paying through pay pal, add $2 to the item price to cover fees (or chose the option to pay the fee yourself during the transfer).

Prices do not cover shipping. Most items will ship between $5 and $10. You will have to tell me if you want special shipping (insurance etc.) otherwise I ship USPS, cheap. I’ll arrange pick up if you are local, or can bring to any rides or events I’m going to etc.

I have pics of most items. Some of the items will be dirty and may need laundering. If there’s damage, I’ve tried to note it. Jonah the cat tried to help me take pics last night. Cat isn’t included.

Yes, I’ll take offers. In most cases, I’ve tried to make sure that none of the items are priced more than 50% of their new price.
