would this work for an all-purpose saddle?
The guy says that it is designed for show jumping, but would it be okay to use this for pleasure riding? It looks fine to me, (first saddle) I'm also considering another saddle, but would this work? Also tell me if it's like a good saddle. Thanks!

N O NO NO ! Do NOT buy that saddle. Looks can fool you! It is a cheap brand. I'm with 
, avoid package deals altogether. And horseluver, the Paris Tack saddles are horrible! They are sized all wrong, built on cheap trees, and look absolutely nothing like the website picture. Been there...done that.
Also, I do not suggest Kincades. They are even worse than Paris Tack. The leather is so cheap the dye wears off so much, and they are like rocks to sit in. My friend used to have one and I swear I thought my butt was going to fall off it was so numb from sitting in tit. It was THAT uncomfortable.
You are much better off saving up for a nice used saddle or a quality brand that is also inexpensive like Saint Lourdes, Henri de Rivel, or Collegiate.
Before you buy a saddle, look it up on horsetackreview.com. They are all user-submitted reviews so you don't have to worry about companies making things up. And if you can't find a review for a specific brand, trust me, it is not quality.
If you are just pleasure riding without any intentions of showing I recommend Wintecs. They are synthetic, but look like leather, they're inexpensive, and they hold up well and are weather-proof.
