About me
Born and raised in Germany, I started riding when I was thirteen years old.
I was already in my mid twenties when I got "Lille Peer".
Although I became a horse owner fairly late, I had spent my teen and early adult years every free minute around horses and if it was only to muck stalls. I even started working in a tack store and pretty soon managed it.
When my husband and I moved to California, I wasn't allowed to work at first. So I helped out as a working student for a local eventing and dressage trainer and a while later started my own business in teaching beginner and intermediate dressage lessons.
Over the years friends kept telling me to open up a tack shop with European products, but I rather wanted to spend my time with horses than to sit in a store all day.
EBay gave me the perfect opportunity to combine both my passions: Selling my favorite riding apparel and tack in the morning and riding in the afternoon.
I strive to bring products to the US that are hard (or not at all) to find or are outrageously expensive.
Being a "DQ" myself, I only sell what I know best - dressage apparel and tack.
My goal is to offer great quality without paying too much for a name.
Most of the brands I sell have been thoroughly tested and approved by my horses and me. All of them are well known and respected in Europe.
With several years of experience in the German tack business, I know the trade.
I also pride myself on fast shipping; if you pay before 12:00 pm PST, I will try to mail your item the very same day, so you can enjoy it ASAP.
So, check out my feedback and bid with confidence!
Happy trails, Bettina

NEWS:
With your help, Lille's Legacy was able to raise more than $130.00 for the non-profit Pound Puppy Rescue with last years holiday season e-Bay listings.
Thank you for your support!!!!
This year I chose CANTER, California, as the recipient. They are dedicated to providing retiring racehorses with opportunities for new careers after the finish line.
Please support this good cause. In this economic crisis not just people suffer. Animals are the first to have to feel the pain. It was a really, really bad year especially for horses and the people who try to help them.
In the following weeks I will be listing many sales items, to make room for new merchandise. You can save up to 70% on some items, so make sure to check back often!
My loss is your gain!
Also, please don't forget to look at my web-store.New items from German manufacturers RTS-Sportline, HKM-Reitsport and USG arrive almost weekly!
I hope to see you there! ~Bettina
