Gosh, some horse sellers can be so pushy!
So I've been out looking through adds and horse classifields for my perfect horse. I've had a few people come and approach me and I've also made some enquiries myself. This journey of finding my perfect friend is turning into a tiring experience that's leaving me more and more frustrated. Some sellers have been honest, however, others seem to be trying to take me for a ride (no pun intended).
-
First of all, they jack up the price atronomically and then offer a heavily discounted price once I say what they're asking for is out of my budget.
-
I've written up an add about what I am looking for in a horse, yet people still push horses on to me that are not good with a farrier (like needs sedating), not good with beginners etc. The catch phrase I am hearing a lot is "it can be worked on!" Even though my add lists specific qualities/requirements that suit me as a rider...
-
I am getting a lot of horses that have injuries but can be worked on, kind of offers
-
Lots and lots of people are happy to sell a horse to me sight unseen which is crazy! Of course I need to see the horse first...
Ugh, this journey is long and exhausting and I hope my perfect match is out there somewhere waiting for me...
Any tips on how to shut down pushy sellers? I don't want to be rude but I feel like I might have to be soon!
