Okey, these things either have to be free or extremly cheap! I am looking for a turnout sheet, able to fit a petite tb mare. Also an old beat up saddle or any CHEAP saddle! English (At least 17" seat, can be bigger, No bigger than a 20" though) Western 15" at least, aussie, 18" at least! PLEASE help me out, I need a saddle so i can ride my horse this summer! PLEASE help me out. Think really hard of any tack you have in your tack room collecting dust! Also in need of a pair of reins (Preferably split, i like those better but any are fine) and an english bridle! Horse sized, any color! I know this is a lot to ask for but I am hoping that someone will read this that can help me out! Thank you! I will let you know if I recieve any of these items! PLEASE help me out. I have my mom out looking aroound for me too, like on ebay but a lot of the saddles are expensive, we are on a very very very tight budget!:o

Be careful with very cheap or older equipment. Check anything that you recieve carefully before using it. Cheap tack and tack that hasn't been properly cared for can easily break during use.
Also you mention the seat sizes that you want. But please remember that the saddle must be properly fitted to your horse as well.

Okay there are alot of places you can get a bridle and bit and reins. As for the saddle, why not save up til you can get one and ride bareback until then?

I do not like riding her bareback she is kind of spooky and likes to jump things on the trail, I am not a jumping expert and definatly can't jump bareback, i'd fall off:o lol. The saddle would have to be a medium wide tree. I know the risk with older used tack, Don't worrry, my neigbor who is in her 40's now was riding since five and can help me fit the saddle to her, see if it fits correctly. I wouldn't put a poorly fitted saddle on my horse!
