Trade-In

Trade-In:

We also offer a Trade-In option for those who are interested in trading in their saddle for something in our stock (or in Highline Tack’s stock). 

*We also accept trade-ins of high-end saddle brands through our sister store, Highline Tack – click here for more info: https://www.highlinetack.com/consignment

The Fineline Tack Trade-In rate is currently 40% (minimum trade-in fee of $700). This means you will have 60% (or the list price minus the minimum fee, whichever is greater) of your saddle’s value to use immediately (once we receive your saddle) towards another saddle in our stock or in Highline Tack’s stock. Please note: if you purchase a saddle from us with Affirm, the 5.99% fee will be deducted from your trade-in saddle’s value due to their high fees (for option #1).

Simply follow these steps to Trade-In your saddle with us:
