PLEASE edit your pictures before you load them and make them right side up!!  Nothing is worse than trying to look at the pictures sideways!!  It screams that you don't care enough to ask someone for help if you don't know how...pure laziness...I move on to another ad....rant for the day (probably PTSD from a week of the IFYR...lol)

p.s...I was looking at a saddle ad and I won't bother when I see this...

Another pet peeve of mine is seeing all that hair on their legs.  I have a hair phobia...I can't stand all that hair.  Clip that crap off of them and make them look like someone owns them.

 Can I join in? I have a pet peeve too. 
I hate the all caps hostile "SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY. Do not waste my time!!!!"
I am probably not gonna waste your time. Even though I am interested, I'm afraid to call you up & have a conversation about your horse or saddle or whatever. How do I know if I am a serious buyer if I can't ask you about your item that is for sale? Maybe I ask a dozen questions & decide that your item is not what I am looking for? Does that make me a tire-kicker, Lookiee-loo, time-waster? Stop that $h*t

thank you for allowing me to rant too. I feel so much better now.

If you want to sell a saddle, clean up it a little. I realize you no longer use it and it has just been sitting in the tack room. It really shows that the saddle has not been taken care of.

On the horses, at least knock the mud off. Don't list a horse as 15-2 when it is obviously 13-2. Or between 15 and 16 hands--big difference. And those videos, why in the heck would you post a video that is so blurry or so tiny that you cannot see the horse and ask $15,000? I like to see what I'm getting.

Or the horse trailers packed full of stuff and shavings and horse poo so you can't see the actual trailer.

Post GOOD PICTURES of your horses and tack!! Why bother if the pictures do not show your tack and horses at their best.

Best example is a new horse ad and the horse is priced over $50,000 and the pictures are terrible.............

I can not stand to read an add that says he/she runs 3D but could be a 1D with correct rider. I am old, fat and ugly and could be young, cute and skinny in the right light NOT. Just tell the truth.
