Consignment

Sell your saddle through Pure Balance

Quality pre-owned saddles find their next rider here. Tell Susan what you have, add a few photos, and say how it can reach her. She reviews every saddle personally, confirms the listing price and the consignment terms with you before anything goes live, and pays you once it sells and the buyer has it.

Your saddle is in Susan's queue.

Your reference code is . Keep it; it goes on the listing and on the payout when your saddle sells.

Susan will get back to you with the listing price and the terms before it goes up. Nothing ships until you two have agreed that.

That didn't go through.

Phone photos are fine. 7 MB total across all five; if yours are bigger, send the stamp and one side now and the rest in a second submission.

Getting it to Susan

Susan travels a set route through the Hill Country and beyond. Hand it over at a stop, or ship it to the store that handles her consignments: The Shipping Place, 9311 FM 1488 Rd Suite 30, Magnolia, TX 77354. They receive it, hold it, and pack it for the buyer when it sells.

If you box and ship it yourself

  • Measure the box, then add 1 to 2 inches to each side before you get a quote. Carriers re-measure every box with their own tape, they round up, and a box that comes in bigger than declared is billed back to you weeks later as an adjustment. Quoting it a little large means no surprise on the bill.
  • A saddle box is charged by its size, not its weight. A saddle box is roughly a 24-inch cube, and 24 x 24 x 24 bills as about 99 lb with UPS or FedEx even though the saddle itself weighs 25 to 60. That is normal, not a mistake, and it is why the estimate above looks like a lot.
  • Wrap the saddle in a blanket or bubble, stirrups off, girth off, and fill the empty space so nothing shifts. Insure it for what you'd sell it for.
  • Easier: The Shipping Place in Magnolia packs and ships saddles and gives you a firm price before it goes. (936) 444-9711.
