> Any well-trained QH around here is at least 4,500...at least. I should have explained this further....$4500 will get you a well-trained 'mut' QH...a good trail horse. If you start getting into bloodlines or performance horses....the sky is the absolute limit. So $4500 is a good deal around here, but if you want to take that horse further, you're still looking at more training and putting the time into it or hiring a trainer. Yes, Icelandic prices are high, but in most cases it's not unreasonable. For me $4500 is too much for a QH...but then I'm not into pile driver rides or too tall horses. Wanda
