I hear ya, trailers for hauling quads etc...are the same way, look on kijiji, people want $1000 - $1500 for a 10 year old used trailer when you can buy new ones starting at $1200....like WTF. And anything under $1000 looks like a piece of sh_t, and they still want $800..... But I am guessing people pay it!!! I am looking to buy a used trailer but i know i will just end up buy new....

it is what it is........

You still have it? I sold my thumper, and I'm pretty sure I'd sooner ride my kid's Z50 than my CRF250. Give me a call.

Kinda promised Riley he could ride it at the rally. After that??? We'll discuss over jello shooters

i bought all my toys used, i had to wait for a while and check every website all the time to snatch the good deals up. But i think poeple set their prices set to negotiate. But some poeple are crazy and think they dont have to take a loss on their toys when they sell them after a couple of years. i bought an 08 summit x 163 in the fall, i got it for a great price in the states, but today i kinda regret it cause i should of got an new etec and no worries, cause of the warrantie:nono:

I say they're justa buncha cheap basteerds thinkin' they can trick people. There's bound to be at least one person who won't do their research, jump at the first "decent" price they see, and realize in the end they just fawked themselves over.

Are you from B.C.? In Alberta, I've never paid tax on something I've bought second hand.
