This message is from: Diana Calder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I've got a 6" John Dewsbury Waterford Baucher bit for sale. I paid $111.60 US (before taxes and shipping) for it back in March this year, used it for about a month, then gave up on it - I'm not sure if it was a little bit thick for Donnie's palate or not, but he definitely couldn't handle all the joints in it - I never did try it on the driving bridle, only on the one we use to ground-drive him with the stoneboat, and not only would he never stop playing with it, but he also managed to pull it plus the rein right through his mouth on several occasions. Waterford bits are supposed to be bought longer than others, so the 6" is about equivalent to a 5.5" French link (which I bought a Smuckers' butterfly version of at the same time, and which Donnie does seem to like, but not as well as the copper-roller D-ring snaffle we started him out with). The Dewsbury bits are supposed to have a life-long warranty, and I've still got the box and everything for the bit so it should be covered the same as if it was new. It has a manufacturer's flaw on one link, but it's smooth and seems only to be cosmetic so I didn't bother returning it. If anyone's interested, I'd like $80 (plus shipping to wherever it needs to go) for the bit. If no one's interested, I'll probably offer it on the CD-L, before trying eBay (the selling fees there are getting nasty). One question - any recommendations on sterilizing the bit before shipping it? I was thinking in terms of rubbing alcohol, but wasn't sure if that was strong enough...
I've also got a New in Box Breyer Silver Wolfe 2000 Spring Show Special Fjord for sale. I accidentally wound up with two (bid on a lot including one on eBay, got outbid, ordered one from an online store, then the high bidder backed out on the eBay lot and since I wanted the rest of the lot anyway, I accepted the win on that one as well). I'm asking $30 plus shipping for the Silver Wolfe. First come, first serve on both of these items. -- Best regards, Diana mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
