What would you pay for:

1. A very used Hug stable sheet, ripped a lot, but most rips are stitched by hand.

2. A well used heavy weight Rider's International stable blanket, similar to this one: http://www.doversaddlery.com/riders-international-stable-blanket/p/X1-24159/cn/4752/. But is the older style with one surcingle that goes around the whole blanket. Surcingle is a little broken/loose and has to be re enforced with a twisty tie at the buckle. There may be one rip but don't recall.

A friend is giving me her senior horse, is keeping his nice blankets, but wants me to make an offer on these 2 older ones. Just have no idea what to offer her.

I don't think used blankets are worth anything even in pristine conditions which those are not. I got taken from a "friend" who had some extra blankets hanging around when I got in a bind after my horse ate his. She charged me $100. I could have got the same blanket new on sale for that.

Say you are not interested in the blankets and she will probably throw them in for free.
