Looks to be a tough one , more or less .. I have not found anything like i might even consider to own in stock anywhere and if you call them about ordering one, they all say .. 6-8 months and we won't do anything custom ( even though the websites all say ,custom orders welcome )
Couple guys told me straight up, if its not a $50,000 trailer , we don't even mess with them any more .. times are good for trailer dealer I guess

Trailers are crazy right now. Covid... Manufacturers can't get enough help, or supplies. If they can get supplies, prices on it have doubled.

The prices for trailers are just stupid anymore. Was going to sell my 24' Bracket Master trailer I got from Bruce Litton in 2002. It was $6700 back then Then I saw that a new one would be 15-20k. I decided to spruce mine up. Lol
Ok

Ok, I have to ask a what’s it worth question here. I’ve got a 38’ Pace Shadow that was not a cheap trailer when I bought it. I had all kinds of extras. Cabinets, white metal inside, black and white floors, ac and 50 amp service, generator door electric over hydraulic jack, two 7000 axles with 16” tires. It’s been stored inside since day one. I don’t thinks it’s ever been wet from the rain. What is it worth? Right now it’s a storage bin for my sisters furniture.

I just bought a 48 ft 5th wheel, and decided to sell one of my 28 footers, boy, I shoulda asked way more. It sold right away, and Im out in the middle of nowhere, guy was very willing to travel. Oddest part was that I had been looking for a bigger trailer for a few months, and ended up finding this one 6 miles from my house! Sometimes it pays to advertise locally for one. Jim.

You might get 85% of what you paid for it? They are not getting any cheaper!

I would recommend them also. I bought a trailer from them quite a while ago and have been by their place since. You might also check with Rich at R&M Race Trailers ( https://www.rmtrailer.com/). They are in Cushing OK and folks come from all over the country to buy trailers from him. I am sure it is a real buyer beware deal but I see quite a few trailers for sale on Facebook Marketplace.
