RC: Bondstreet saddles/questions/more on the great saddle

["Kimberly M. Price" <kim@plough-electric.com>]

Hi Heidi,

(I tried sending this privately but it bounced back....)

I dealt with Bondstreet for a few months last year while trying to find
a saddle to fit my morab.  The salesman tried the best he could, was
great about shipping out different saddles to try at his expense (they
sell used saddles too), and I did try his adjustable Bondstreet saddle
but it was still not wide enough for Mystery.  It is adjustable, but it
is the angle of the tree that has to match and it never did. He gave
excellent service
and kept his word...I was sorry I couldn't give him my business.

I finally went with a local guy and got the horse measured and fitted
for a JRD endurance saddle.  It is quite a bit more expensive (and I
bought it used!) but I feel much better about being able to take it to
the same shop and have it restuffed and fitted as needed...

BTW, I do have a Kieffer dressage 17" Medium tree for sell... used and
good for hacking around, not in great condition.  I am asking $600. for
it if you know anyone.  I bought that off the web from Charlotte
Saddlery.

Good luck in the great saddle hunt!
