Like jump blocks, expensive anywhere, really expensive from Dover. The company that burned the bridge for me was State Line Tack. Before I was a horse owner, I used to buy clothing from them. I once waited six months for paddock boots.

I find they are almost always more expensive than other retailers. I bought my blankets from Schneiders and have purchased a few odds and ends from State Line Tack.

So I guess for me, $119 is cheaper, though I'd hardly define it as closeout. That said, I do find Dover equal pricing or better on many items I buy. And sometimes their closeout prices are really good (like apparel). I never look at the paper catalog.

Their customer service was great and I would buy again, but not if I can get the item someplace else. As for pricing, no one store can have the lowest prices on everything, they would go out of business. They have to make money where they can. Even Smart Pak isn't cheapest on everything.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01571711150060964222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-51492733406356421502011-04-23T12:42:24.536-04:002011-04-23T12:42:24.536-04:00I think, sometimes, there's a little of that &...I think, sometimes, there's a little of that "upscale" sense at Dover. IF they are classy, they can charge more.

I recently bought myself a new pair of boots and a couple other things. The combined total cost was over $300. Then I had to pay THIRTY DOLLARS for shipping because they base their shipping cost on dollars spent, not weight! I thought I should qualify for free shipping at that cost; that's what most other companies do. I had a Dover gift jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04693551223749982508noreply@blogger.com
