Location: So. Cali. | I generally dont waste my time with horses that do not have prices listed. I saw generally because when I do ask it's because I know the horse is going to be stupidly priced so I just want a good laugh.

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | TrailGirl - 2014-08-13 10:25 AM I guess I just don't understand the reasoning behind making people ask you for the price. Just put it in the dang ad already.
Can someone explain it to me? Maybe I'm just slow.
Because they are afraid that people who actually know them and the horse will laugh behind their backs. |

I dont get it either. I will NEVER email on private treaty ads. They do it to supposedly weed out tire kickers. But I can attest that I have been a very serious buyer at times and I will not email for a price. You are limiting your possible buyers by placing ads without a price. |

Location: Do I hear Banjos? | So none of you see a GOOD reason to withhold the price? I am glad I'm not alone in thinking it actually tends to hurt your chances of selling the horse in most cases.

I've heard people say that it's so no one knows what the buyer paid.....I guess in case one or both are trying to fib on their taxes...idk. |

In the high end horses I belive the seller like to respect potential buyers privicey and not post the price (what the person pays) for everybody to see. |
