| Does this bug anyone else. I have been seeing this a lot. I wouldn't call on a horse that has this in the ad. In my opinion I feel like it's arrogant |

| I know it's mean, but then I like to pick out every conformational flaw the horse has, just to humble them! People are usually very insecure once you start picking on THEIR horse.

If you did that to me, I'd just ask you why you chose to call on such a poor specimen, then??? I'd seriously question your judgment if you were wanting to buy something that you found that many things wrong with it...lol

You are more witty than most Diane! Most amature horse salesmen have a hard time deviating from script. And those with horses that are worth it, usually don't need to defend the price. |

Location: MD | Id rather see that and good recent photos that sell the horse over someone having one blurry far away photo and not enough info. I wont be a "tire kicker" if you disclose obvious information!! Like height, how far along he is, location. |

Location: Too far from home | Doesn't bother me a bit, but I don't buy horses very often as we raise them. If you've ever sold a horse, you will understand the frustration of pricing a horse reasonably (and I'm not talking $25,000 +, more like $2500) and having someone call and offer you half. I would never put it in an ad, but I can understand the frustration that causes folks to do so. I like it when sellers and buyers choose to keep it classy. It is a business afterall. |

Location: Mayberry | I really don't have a problem with it. I see it as being a very nice way of being up front with people, eliminating a whole lot of wasted time dealing with people who won't buy unless they think they are going to get a "steal of a deal".
If you don't like how the ad is written skim over it you will save everyone involved a lot of time and frustration. |

| Right just put price of the horse. I guess what is expensive to one person is not to another. It's like not putting a price on a house for sale |
