Do I see stitching along the lower edge of the saddle? That is, it's two layers of leather stitched together? Certainly not a good sign. I have an East German saddle that's made like that, and it's pretty terrible. But perhaps we digress; the one on ebay didn't have that stitching, though the top is clearly reenforced with something, which may or may not be a good sign.
