Here is your old thread post advertising your horse. Sounds like you are a great owner if you didn't care if it went to an auction house cause you didn't want to pay someone to help find it a home. Going to an auction 90/10 chance of going to a good home, do you classify a good home the slaughter houses? If the horse is healthy there should be no reason you cannot find it a home! What a classy act! I just feel sorry for the horse!

Anyone know anybody looking for a new horse?
Does anybody know of anyone looking to buy a horse? Im trying to sell my egyptian arab mare, can't place an ad on the classifieds because I have no credit card (and it seems like a waste of money anyways). Board is setting me in debt for her, it really would be easier to keep her here but since the payments are so high to keep her at all, I can't buy the things needed to make her a fence. Plus I can't find anyone in my area willing to board any new horses. I'm selling her for $2,000, which is alot less than I paid for her (and since I was new to the horse scene, I also got gipped on the papers I was promised). She is being kept in Newburg with 4 other horses, and gets along well. She is grey, 3 years old, 15.1, washes, trailer loads, and lunges. We've been able to tack her up and sit on her back, but noone has actually ridden her. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post this, but I've read the forum rules over and over and found nothing prohibiting it. Please contact me if you know of anyone interested, this whole thing has got me feeling really lost and betrayed by the girl I bought her from (who also is the one I'm boarding her with). I REALLY need a new home for her ASAP, or else my other option would be to take her to an auction.., so please email me if you know someone looking for an arab or if you yourself are looking for one at

To get decent money at all you need to get her papers in hand..Arabs are hard to sell anyway unless you find a breeder..grey mares are nice but with no papers it will be hard..especially as she is not riding. I would find $15 to place her on dreamhorse.com If you can not do it I will pay for the ad..list her with a pic and answer emails and meet buyers to see her..I will get 10% of her selling price for a sellers fee. I know you do not want to hear this but it is a buyers market at this time..not a sellers. Winter is on the way and everyone is selling and not buying. Now is the time to buy not sell...But I have been seriously wrong befor..good luck...
ps hunt down her papers!!

*sigh*, kinda figured that much. I do have an ad up for her on dreamhorse, not the photo ad though, and have recieved several replies, but all have stated the same. Alot of people though seem not to actually READ the ad, most tell me they are looking for a well trained, old horse, and I'm like "What are you, blind!?" (although not to them lol). I'd rather try to get as much as I can without paying commission, but thank you for your offer. I'm about ready to give up and send her to an auction, as horrid as it sounds. I would rather do that and have her atleast have a 90/10 chance of going to a good home, than go completely bankrupt and lose everything and still end up having her go to an auction by keeping her and trying to sell her like this.

Well she will not bring much at an auction this time of year..and I do not think there are any until spring. I saw some decent horses go this weekend for under $600. and most were sold to DEALERS that are known to sell to killers. I do wish you the best of luck and I hate being so neg but I am seeing it first hand. I have a kid safe app mare I cant get people out to see at $600 a draft gelding 19H for $1500 and a bred app mare with over 200 national points for $5000 all good prices for what they are..
If you get desperate I can give you two numbers for dealers and they will make you an offer..it will be low though...one is up your way..one is down here...
You can not get her papers anyhow? If she is straight egyptian you could sell her off pedigree alone on dream horse...good luck
