Ron-

Any idea on the size of the trailer? 8x8 or 8x10? I personally wouldn't even bother with an 8x8 2 place unless it was a great deal. The extra 2 feet on an 8x10 are really nice.

If the salt shield is in good shape, that definitely will add value for the seller.

Is it torsion axle or leaf springs?

Just a few things to consider.

My 2 place trailer was $1200 I believe. I just took what the dealer had when I was buying my new sled. I more than likely could have had a better deal if I shopped around.

I just bought a 96 Floe 8X10 V front, leaf spring suspension without a salt shield for $950. Sounds like I could've gotten a better deal if I shopped around more. Oh well, at least it came with a permanent license.

I'd offer $700.

I bought a new 8x10 alum/torsion axle/tilt trailer at fleet farm 3 years ago for $850 and the salt sheild for $150.

I'd say if it is a tilt bed trailer then $800 is too much for an early 90's. If it's a V front drive on/off then I'd probably say it's more in the right ballpark.

It is an 8/10

torsion axle

very nice salt shield

everything in excellent shape

talked to his brother who was there and said the seller was going through a divorce.

Paid him $700.00

Good bit of info to know before negotiatons

Thanks for all the help fm'ers
