I like the new saddle! What did you end up getting?
Thanks! It's an ancient Kieffer Wein DL I got for $350! With some loving from the saddle fitter and some leather conditioner, it's in great shape now! I feel like a got a great deal!

hehe! Old Kieffers around 300 bucks are the best!!!

image I talked them down from $395 to $325, but had to pay shipping! What model is yours?

Poor Zoe- our other saddle is an ancient Crosby PDN that I got for $150 on eBay! It's a great saddle, though. I ought to buy stock in Leather Renew, though!

Kieffer Grand Prix International, approximately 25 years old. Listed at $495, dropped to $400, and I offered $300 and got it for that! And then it was only like $75 extra to get it fitted image

She even fitted my collegiate diploma for that $75, so Bud does have a new jumping saddle.

Mine originally came in brown and is still brown:

Best part besides it fitting my horse AND me? It came with short billets and in the same color as my other saddle! So I didn't need a new girth! lol We need to start another club ... the Vintage Kieffer Dressage Saddle Club! (or to be more inclusive: The Vintage Saddle Club)

Very nice! I like the brown on Buttercup! I'm down for being in another club, too- makes me feel special and included!
