Hi, Could you horsey people give me a idea of why I have hardly had intrest(just people that ask lots of questions then say over budget) in a pony I have for sale? Is it the advert? look of the pony? Im really lost as genuinly thought somebody would have snapped him up. (see my profiel for advert) Thanks mods please move to approp area as unsure were to put this.

First of all I will say there isn't alot selling at the moment, thats just how it is!
I think you need to put better pictures on eg side on but stood up correctly with his ears forward.
I don't think the comment you put about sending "muppets pictures" is going to help............don't get me wrong I know how frustrating it is with endless can I have pics etc ( I had them and I had loads of pictures and videos on my advert) but it may put a genuine buyer off.
I would state at the bottom of your advert please phone for more details and include your number.
Where else have you advertised him?

Thanks Bow, A little job for me next weekend with the camera. Yep to be honest I did put the comment on out of fustration after having people ask me a million questions then say he is 'over our budget'. I have put him on horsequest. Its difficult when you know the pony so its good to hear comments from a outsider to help point me on track as I know he is lovely just need a way to show it on the advert.

If you have put the price on your advert they shouldn't be wasting your time, and I know how annoying and frustrating it is!
Best of luck with it, I never want to do it again!
modified to add, thank you Garnet, I always try to be nice ;D

agree with all the above advice... but does look a super little pony and I am surprised he has not sold at the price you are asking for him!... maybe its partly to do with your location ( I know you cant help that lol) but you are a long way down the country and it does put some people off? I know it did with us when we were looking and nearly all the best ponies were in Sussex lol ... good luck though.. xx
