| I think moreso depends on your area, who put the 90 days on them and exactly how they're riding after 90 days, their size, demeanor, the desirability of the papers in your area, mare, gelding, stud colt?
Too many factors to say on that information alone IMO. |

| A few years ago I sold a 3 year old Firewater Finale buckskin filly, great disposition and mind, 30 days under saddle for $4500. |

       Location: In The Snow, AZ | I may have read it wrong, but I think he's asking what the horse should know in each price bracket at that age and number of rides... |

| Thanks. That's exactly what I'm trying to figure out. I have one for sale on here for $6500, my price was set based on others price. Age, sex, training level, pedigree. I went on the lower end, but not sure if am overpriced. |

    Location: Deep South | I see them bred similarly to that either OTT, or no rides, 2-3 years old for $1500-2500 pretty regularly. How much you add on that price for 90 days really depends on the quality of the 90 days.
One with a super nice handle, that could very easily be loping the pattern in no time. Price around $5k
One that's just riding around decent. $3500
To get on up there near $10k I think you'd have to get the horses in the hands of a recognizable trainer or already be cruising a nice pattern (obviously have more than 90 days).

So people are being unrealistic with their prices?
Honestly? Yes, quite often they are being unrealistic. But not only with the price, also with the quality of the horse, training level, ability, etc. I won't deny that I have priced mine on the high end in the hopes I'd get a buyer, knowing that I was willing to take offers. But you have to remember that just because a horse is advertised at a certain price doesn't mean the horse will sell for that price. I prefer to look at the sold ads and see which ones are actually getting buyers. And like was mentioned, area makes a difference in value. Also, well-known trainers are likely going to get more interest and get a higher sale price because of their reputation. The lower priced horses also typically sell a little faster/easier. There are so many variables when it comes to pricing horses. I think the hardest thing for people is taking the emotional side out of it, and pricing the horse for what it truly is. |

| Look on the ads here. For the past several months there have been some nice prospects that are very reasonably priced. There are some right now |
