[RC] Alert! ReactorPanel Saddle Theft: 9 saddles stolen in UK - Reactorpanel

It is with regret - and a bit of disgust - that I'm writing and asking for help from the international equine community.

 

Our saddler's workshops in Walsall, England were broken into on Friday night, July 29.  The thieves took away saddles that were nearly finished and ready for shipment.  As they did not steal panels, the saddles are unusable in their present state.  Instead of "bottoms", they have velcro plates.  It is most likely that these saddles will be modified, through the addition of wool or foam flocking.

 

Even if you are not in England, please help us by watching classified ads and bulletin board lists.  Given today's international markets, these saddles could turn up for offer in any country on any continent. 

 

-  If you are offered a ReactorPanel saddle to buy, be sure that it includes the panels as a verification of authenticity.

 

-  If you see a ReactorPanel saddle with conventional flocking, be highly suspicious.  All RP saddles have the logo and serial number stamped into the sweat flaps on both sides.  We have a list of description and serial number of these saddles.  Contact us immediately if you think you may have information on one of the stolen saddles.

 

-  We are urgently seeking an immediate return, no questions asked

 

Thanks so much.
