Here’s another design, in case the other doesn’t work out… http://www.classicshowjumps.com/Tack-Storage/Saddle-Carrier/flypage.tpl.html
FYI - I just ordered the Stubbs one on http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B004RDGYFG/ref=ox_ya_os_product
It is coming from a different UK seller, but I could log on with my Amazon account and including shipping to California, it was about $84. If you click around on the site, you can find it in other colors too. Can’t wait to get it.
For others wanting another thing I have a western saddel & I either hang it over a trailer tie in the top of my trailer (heavy thing it is to) or on a rubbermaid tub in the back of the SUV which will hold your brushes n stuff. Priced like $20 if you are intersted.
I think Sebo Interior and Equipage used to have these: http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/d8/42/d4/d842d4c7f8197a62ab896e41c57ecca6.jpg
I emailed them to see if they still sell them and how much it would be to ship to the U.S.
Any word on if ERS is going to carry the Stubbs saddle rack?

I got a reply back from SeBo and they do carry those ^. It’s € 41 (incl. BTW). Not sure what BTW is.
I’m still interested. Let us know what they say.
Just for the record, I emailed ERS about this myself. I still want one.
I also bought the Stubbs one from an Amazon seller. I’m glad I did - I love it!
If only Amazon carried the Buggy Mate for the Stubbs Saddle Mate.
But, maybe it’s a good thing that Stubbs products are not easy to buy in the US. My bank account would be seriously depleted!
On a side note, i have a car…looking for a saddle holder that attaches to the back of the front seats. Looks similar to a fold down saddle wooden rack you would use with the hook and eye.
Too many people in te US have trucks so we don’t have all of this innovation for carrying saddles in the car!
When I was a teenager and actively showing my father built some awesome things for saddle storage. We had a tree that fit on the tongue of the trailer. It fit into the top of the trailer jack. We really could have sold them but the window of oppurtunity was short because that was the start of everyone getting goosenecks!

SaddleFly might work; not sure if you can order it in the US.[/QUOTE]
The saddle fly is great. A friend gave me one as a gift. It is perfect to attach to the headrest, either front or rear facing. Super easy to set up and fold down.
BUT… She ordered and paid for 2 (one for her, one for me) last August, one finally arrived in February, and she is still fighting with the company to get the second one. They say 2 were shipped, and the customer service people don’t speak/type English very well, so buyer beware. I don’t think they are in true production yet, and have been giving her the run around for 7 months now. Not worth it in my books. This is the guiltiest I have ever felt about a gift someone gave me. I feel like giving it back and telling her to get her money back for the second one.
just wanted to share a story about my stubbs saddle mate
After I read this thread I decided I need a stubbs saddle mate. The tack compartment in my trailer is not that great (about the only thing in my trailer which I don’t like) and I usually store all my tack on the back seat of my car. That is quite messy… So I ordered the stubbs saddle mate from Amazon. They gave me an estimated arrival date in May. So far so good.
When I came back from the WC in Vegas I found a card that something was delivered by USPS. Of course I figured that that was the saddle mate. So I tried to go online to reschedule the delivery. But I found a notice that it was send back already.
The weird thing was that I only got one card and they did not even held it for 5 days… So I called USPS and complained. They gave me the number of the postoffice in question and I talked to the manager there. They looked for it and could not find it and agreed it was probably sent back
So I contacted the seller and we agreed that we would wait for it to arrive back in GB and then resend it… (I was pretty mad at that time) We waited and waited and finally both concluded that it got lost. So I got my money refunded and ordered it again. Yesterday I found another card in my mailbox that it arrived… so today first thing I did was going to the post office to pick it up !!! And guess what…
The lady in the post office told me that she had two saddle mates for me !!!
One from a couple of weeks back and one from yesterday…
I could not believe it… So now I ordered to send the first saddle mate back and kept the second one… I hope that the nice lady in GB will get it back now at least…
I think this post office is not really organized…
But the saddle mate is perfect!! I love it
