    • My new english saddle cost me $450, but it was treeless. My favourite used saddle cost me $75, it's a gorgeous cutback.Bridle cost me about $20-35, rug $20-35. I was buying from a great used and new tack place, so put that on the lower end of things.

    • Are you planning on buying new tack or used?Are you buying a childrens saddle or a adult one?You can easily get a decent english saddle (used) for $200ish, I bought a lovely Stubben off ebay for $350 and it was a 17 inch, saddles that are smaller, ie 15inch and such, are cheaper than the larger ones in my experience. Synthetic saddles are cheaper than leather ones, a new synthetic can run around $300, but in my opinion they do not hold up over time very well. A good quality leather saddle should in theory outlast you provided its taken proper care of.Bridles do not have to be expensive, I bought a decent training one for $30 at the local tack store, that is not including the reins which were another $20, so think $50ish for something new and not very fancy. Personally I would recommend going with a used saddle, look around at your local tack shops. I would recommend a running martingale over a standing, but that is a personal preference. A rug? you mean a blanket or a saddle pad? I bought a little used saddle pad for $10 at the local tack store, a proper blanket will run $80+ for something that is decent for the winter. Grooming kit should not be expensive, $20ish at the most.

    • English Saddle- $400-$7,000 (Hermes)Bridle- $200-$5,000Martingale- $25-$200Grooming Kit- I would everything separatly, this cost me $103 including the fly mask and fly spray.

    • Saddle: Cheap $100-400 American DollarsAverage: 500- 900Expensive- $900+ They can get up to 4 or five thousand dollars for custom. I'd recommend getting a used saddle for your first one, that way you can keep the price down until you know exactly what you like best (as far as knee rolls, cutback, close contact or all purpose go).DO NOT get a cheap saddle even though the price looks good. They don't fit right and might hurt your horse's back. Get a good deal on a used saddle but get a good brand. I bought an older Crosby saddle for $300 and i love it.Just make sure that the used saddle isn't too used, and that the leather isn't discolored, stitches aren't broken, and the tree is in good shape, and make sure the wool flocking doesn't need to be replaced. Also, make sure you get the right size. I'm 5'5" and average build, and i use a 17" in an english/huntseat saddle. Ask the people where you take lessons, or your trainer. Check Ebay or Tacktrader.com for saddles. Good brands are : Crosby, Collegiate, Courbette, Henri De Rivel, Pessoa, Wintec is pretty good, but they're synthetic. Make sure you don't get a blue ridge or silver fox saddle or anything like that. They're cheap but they don't hold up and they look horrible.Bridles can run from $30-200 but make sure you get supple leather that isn't stiff. And get the right size too.Saddle Pads/Rugs can be from $20-$100. You probably aren't concerned about getting real sheepskin yet, so saddle pads aren't that important. Standing martingales can be $75-$15. Grooming kits are generally cheaper and you get what you want if you buy brushes separately. They can be $5 each. Get a soft brush, hard brush, curry, hoof pick, and mane and tail brush.

    • If you are going to be showing in 4-H and open shows, then I wouldn't spend more than $500 on a saddle. The price also depends on how long you think you will stick with riding. If you are going to be showing at rated hunt seat shows, and you think you will be riding for a long time then a good hunt seat saddle should cost from $1,000 - $3,500. I have a used Pessoa A/O (Made in France) that I got for $2,500 (I think). I used to ride in an old $200 saddle before I got serious about riding. It was uncomfortable, and it didn't fit me (wrong seat and flap size). I have really long legs so had to get a more forward flap. It is a lot more comfortable and I can keep my legs more still and stay in the correct postition.

    • If I were getting my FIRST saddle, I'd look on ebay with the help of this group and find a good used english saddle (European made). To do this, you're going to have to learn how to measure yourself for your seat size. Starting at your outside knee, take a measuring tape and measure from there to your hip. That will give you your seat size. If you HAVE to get a saddle before you get your horse, then go with a medium tree because it's most likely to fit the average horse and you can change it to narrow if you have to by using different pads.http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280255158634That's a large seat (18"), but that will give you an idea as to what they are costing on ebay (Expect about $40.00 for shipping). This is an all purpose saddle so you can do some jumping, flat work and a bit of dressage with it.As for your bridle and breastplate, there again, don't go with the cheapies! The ones made in India won't hold up. Expect to spend upwards of $100.00 plus shipping for the bridle, breast collar maybe more but they typically do come with either a running or standing martingale.As for brush kits, check out Stateline's website, they have kits from $8.00 to $12.00.I hope this helps.
