Pictures are worth a thousand words.

I can't find words to describe this, so I will let the photos do the talking. All I can say is it is a very expensive, custom made Ansur Classic saddle with hair-on dyed cowhide. They want $1800, they claim it has never been used. I was so traumatized after seeing this, I had to get off of the Internet.



Brace yourselves...

    It never ceases to amaze me how much it costs to look so cheap.

    I am planning to set up an email address for this blog. I don't want my personal email to get innondated with emails and hate mail. I will post the address on the blog so everyone can send ideas or whatever.

    Pass the eye bleach, please!

    It doesn't even look comfortable!! Are those normally expensive, or is it because it's a custom?

    I didn't think I could be traumatized. I was wrong. I am going to need therapy. Lots and lots of therapy.

    It looks like there are some very large flaws in the leather as well. If you look in the top picture, there are some voids or wrinkles there. I guess you have to look past the tiger stripes to see it though.

    I keep picturing a leathery cougar woman with frosty fuschia lipstick, garage door metallic eyeshadow, a glitterous ring on every finger and piles of frizzy hair over a visor.
