Nevermind. I contacted Martin on this and was told that they can only retree one size down, so that won't help. Leaving this for an FYI for anyone else that is having the same issue. |

They are unless you're stuck with a 10" Gullet. I have TWO in on trade.... Those things are made for baby elephants! LOL I'll have them forever I'm sure.  |

| I feel the same as u. I have two 9 inch gullett crown c's, I ride one and need to sell the other. Having trouble selling. I have always been able to sell a saddle. Are there any dealers that would trade a comparable saddle? |

| With selling crown c saddles now, there are so many for sale as so many people bought them moved up or down sizes.
Most crown c saddles I see for sale people are asking new or almost new price, some are asking 500 more then what I bought mine for brand new and it is 4 years old, this is why I don't think they are moving as fast as they used to. |

You have no idea... They don't even sit on a saddle stand. They just lay there.... I had a friend convinced it was a baby elephant saddle LOL |
