Dang! That's nice! I'm gussing somewhere between $18-25k. That is based on absolutely nothing.

The trailer itself that size is between 6 and 8 gs so I say no more than 12 to 14 there isn't any high end equipment in it but there is alot of room for you to make it the way you want it. It should work out good for you.

I saw it listed for a really low price and I would jump on this but its all Jim's for finding it. It sounds like a good deal to me. I wonder what the condition of the trailer and equipment is, from the pictures it looks good but they can be deceiving.

Thanks for the input guys. I am very wary about this and was wondering if I was totally off base. He is only asking $3,800 for it. I just sent him an email say I am interested, but have not heard back yet.

I want the make sure he has a proper title to it and that there aren't some major problems if he does get back to me. It probably is one of those "if you think it is too good to be true, it probably is" kinda things.

Thats what I first thought when it was posted on craiglist, I thought it maybe a scam but good luck and hopefully it is a legitimate deal

FYI - I just sold a 1997 5X8 trailer on ebay for $910, it was in great shape, but look what you are getting for about four times to price. A hell of a lot more. I would guess if it is a good trailer you could flip it easily for around 6k. Good luck

Those are higher than the ones around here for sure. The one I am looking at is way out of line with any others I have seen on craigslist.
