(Sit down, this got a bit long 
)
Offered for sale is your choice of nylon goat harness. Measurements are approximate (and were done flat) - the closer you are to the middle of the adjustable distance (as girth measurement), the more likely the harness will fit overall. My guess is these are intended for the larger breed type goats.
I like both harnesses, so I don't mind which one I end up keeping - so either one - but just one - is offered for sale for $60 plus shipping. It should fit in a Priority flat rate box (12.65 to 17.90 depending on what size box I can fit it into). I can ship another method if you prefer, at cost.
The first harness is a pretty black and red set, with synthetic fleece padding on the breastcollar, backpad/saddle and bellyband/surcingle. The breastcollar has a center front D ring, and a single adjustable neckstrap, with 2" wide single layer traces approx. 54 inches long each (adjustable to any shorter length with a slider). They end in a snap, which seems sturdy, but since this point takes a lot of stress, I'd recommend changing it to a different way of attaching to the singletree or vehicle (such as folding them in half lengthwise to make 1" doubled traces, sewing securely, and burning holes/slots where needed).
The backpad has D rings for passing the reins through, that do not stand up on their own. The shaft loops have a square D at their lower point, for another strap which holds the shaft loops down. The girth will adjust from approx. 36" to 47". The unpadded 2" wide breeching attaches to a D ring on the the backpad with a snap. Holdback straps are not included, but are simple to purchase or make to suit your vehicle.
There are two separate reins, black with red overlay, each a little over 8 feet long, with snap ends. Reins are 1" wide.
It's nice and colorful, with the red accents on black. It's in very good condition. All hardware is nickel plated.
The second is a solid black nylon harness, which appears to be quite similar to one shown on the Hoegger website, although I can't find any makers mark on it. The breastcollar, backband, bellyband, and breeching are all padded with real sheepskin shearling.
The breastcollar padding has one area that is damaged. The nylon is not damaged. I will include a piece of closely matching shearling large enough for you to replace the damaged section. You can also just use a breastcollar pad instead.
The breastcollar has two front center D rings (that do have some surface rust), and a forked adjustable neckstrap, with 3/4" wide, double layer traces, with holes at approx. 31", 35" and 39".
The backband has upright terrets for the reins to pass through, although I'd recommend using a pad under the backband, since the base of the terrets can be felt quite easily, and you wouldn't want them poking an animal in the back. It didn't come with anything to hold the shaft loops down, but I highly recommend adding something to do so if you will be using a 2-wheel vehicle. There are D rings on the bellyband, so a simple strap from the bottom of each shaft loop to each D ring would work. You don't want the shafts of your vehicle flying upwards if the balance tips back!
The girth adjusts from approx. 27" to 51". The padded 1.5" wide breeching attaches to the backband with a buckle, and holdback straps are included.
One-piece reins are approx. 16.5 feet long with scissor-snap ends. Reins are 3/4" wide.
It's a little sturdier and more well-made than the first one. Except for the damaged area of padding on the breastcollar, it's in very good condition. There's also the surface rust on the two front D rings of the breastcollar, but those are not generally used. All hardware is nickel plated.
Both harnesses have been freshly washed. I used one when I started line-driving my mini horse (either one would be suitable for line-driving a mini horse, if it fits. I would only recommend the black set for actual driving after something is added to hold down those shaft loops as noted above, and with a harness pad under the backpad. The black and red set would be ok for light driving after adding holdback straps and modifying the traces as noted above). If you have any questions feel free to ask.
BONUS! No matter which harness you choose, I'll also include a driving-type goat halter (at least I'm pretty sure that's what it is). It has two rings to attach reins, and a lower ring for a lead line. The lower chin strap, and the part that goes over the poll, are adjustable. Personally if I was driving a goat, I'd have it on a lead line anyway, being led by someone, unless I was super confident of my goat and driving ability, or in a securely fenced area.
Thanks for looking!
