What is a reasonable commission to pay for the sale of a horse?

A person I know who owns a livery yard will shortly complete the sale of my horse for around £3000. It may be that I will have to decide for myself how much to pay for the work done to effect the sale. There were no direct advertising costs involved but the seller talked to a number of potential buyers who have looked the horse over and no doubt asked questions. I want to be fair if I must decide the amount to pay.

1. 10% of contract value would be a very generous amount. if you're the stingy sort of fellow, 5% would be fair enough. good luck
2. 10% for under 5.000 and 7% for more.
