Last year i bought a WOW saddle for my 13.2hh cob and the fitter assureed me it would fit my 14.1hhcob when he came into work this year. What she did not say was that the panels would need changing - new panels £366! OMG!!!
So i have considered selling on ebay but look to loose about £600 - and would still need to buy another saddle. The option now is to find some used SDWG panels in brown (size 1) - but can i find them??? oh no. It would seem the fitters are only interested in you if they can sell you new - funny how you dont find out these things when they are selling them to you at the start?
Anyway, if anyone has, or knows of someone with some WOW saddle panels in their tack room that they no longer need - could you ask them to check if they are SDWG, brown, size 1 and if so give me an email. I would be soooooo grateful.
many thanks
Prim

Hi Primrosepye,
I've got a Wow and I know that panels etc. are expensive.
I had thought of getting some straighter cut flaps when I come round to using the saddle on my filly and had thought about getting them made up by a saddler if I couldn't find any suitable second hand perhaps you could get panels made.
Let me know if you get a quote as I would be interested to know how much it would cost.

must admit i hadnt thought of a saddler making them - 'cos its got flair i dont know if it is possible, but you never know!
Nutter you did really well with your Stubben - their reputation must hold the value high.
Qui Gon Jinn - i dont seem to have recived an email to my private address - could you re-send? thanks
Oh well, am off to the equine event at Westpoint tomorrow, fingers crossed i dont buy anything too silly and frivilous!!
