Bex2www.expat-equestrian.com Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Hi,You could try putting a posting on this forum (and others) with a description of the horse stating things like: Age BreedSexHeightTempermentLevel of capability ( ie novice, not novice ride !)Oh yeah and price.Also you could try the English newspaper!Hope this helps!Bexwww.expat-equestrian.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Sorry Bex - not on this forum, we are non advertising as explained in the 'sticky' at the top of the section.There are other French interest forums that do allow advertising so may be that would be an avenue worth following.Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaysBasque Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Why can't they sell the horse themselves? Requests like that always make me wonder. Anyway, being constructive now, you can a) advertise the horse in the various mags like L'Eperon, Cheval, Cheval Loisir etc., and b)you can put an advert on the FFE Forum, they've got a topic for sales.

kwp5000 Posted March 19, 2005 Author Share Posted March 19, 2005 Thanks guys, will go down those avenues.They are trying to sell the horse themselves as well but asked for assistance as we all know that you can never get rid of a horse quickly at a decent price when you need to! Hope that satisfies your curiosity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaysBasque Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 I forgot to mention to put an advert into all your local vets as well, as people who are waiting always study the adverts posted there. The link to the FFE forum is http://www.ffe.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl and there is a topic 'Vends Cheval'.Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richardbk Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 does it have breed papers? - if not it will be worth a lot less in France than in the UK and be difficult to shift - if yes it will be worth more in france.regsRichard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
