hmm.. im not sure, if its not in the best condition, then i would wait until you come across one in better condition (although it may be a bit more exspenive)..

i would be sure its the currect type of saddle for you and your horse also..

Dressage, its more then a sport, its a passion. Sabrina&Saber, the world's next Eventing stars.

when you sit in the saddle, and it feels like nothing else matters then you know your ment to be a horseback rider.

if you've ever ridden in pajamas without shoe's, fallen off a horse, jumped over jump just because you wanted, and spent the entire day cleaning your horse for the horse show, then you can call yourself a real horseback rider.:)

I would save your money and invest in a nice(r) used one. That one isn't in the best condition...

Get one in better condition...I love Stubben saddles, but that one doesn't look like it was taken care of very well.

I didn't LOOK (because my computers being a butthead) but OLD STUBBEN = BUYNOW. Buy bad condition, do you mean its scratched up and has marks from the stirrup leathers? As long as the tree and stitching are intact, go for it. Those things will survive WWIII....

I like it pretty well, it looks a little grimy but if you could get the grime off it would probably look okay. I don't like the looks of the knee flaps though.

you can always get kneerolls restuffed, but i would get it cause old stubbens are SO great!! even if they are a little beaten and uncared for, i'd get it for 80 bucks!!
