Too little information. Are they papered, are they QH, Paint or something not very saleable? Big, small, roped off, penning prospects? Prices are down quite a bit, but good stuff still sells. I was at a sale end of July and good quality broke horses were anywhere from $1800 (well started performance prospect) to $5000 (good ranch horses). I've heard that some of the other annual sales in Saskatchewan were very soft, so you'd need to check with some of those people for more up to date info. Many of them have websites on northernhorse.com

$3,500 on 3? That price is just right. Any higher and he might not pay it, any lower, and you couldn't stand to take it!
Seriously, that's rock bottom on horses like that. It took you a long time to "make" them, and replacements don't come cheap.
On the other hand, horses are low now, and feed is high, so if you will still have something left to ride,.....I'd take the offer.
