Would you say that now in Australia horses are fairly cheap generally

I know there are the top quality competition horses, but a general young all-rounder is fairly inexpensive compared to other countries at the moment?

Obviously there is nothing constant but if someone could give me a general idea of the horse market is Aus, it would be greatly appreciated.

The average going price for a reasonable all rounder is between $1000 - $1500. Yes the prices have dropped with people finding it hard to keep up with the escalating feed costs due to the drought but people that know their horse's real value will stick to the price knowing they will get it because a good horse is worth it's weight in gold. Personally I would rather spend the money to get a good horse. In the end it is worth it rather than feeding a horse that isn't suitable. I have been blessed with 2 fantastic horses one I got for $700 and the other I paid $2000 for so they are out there at either end of the scale.

I can't comment on other countries as I have never really looked at what horses are worth in other countries.
