That was average price for the early early auctions with one going over $2000 IIRC. The dual axles in the first auction were $3k+ and the next lot went to $7K.

I can't get over the trailer prices I couldn't come at those prices ile just wait till they start turning up on gumtree once the novelty wears off them

Another example of the "Going, going, gone" feature pushing up bids. That trailer was the last one to finish, well after 5.00pm. As the others dropped off with no last minute bids and closed, this was the last in the auction left to place a bid on. If you had to have a trailer, this was your last opportunity.


I don't think it indicates there's anything special about this trailer in particular.

A No5 trailer on gumtree with a cage and boat rack is $4800

And top $$ for all the auctions went to an Adelaide GS..

Must have been the matching seats.

Yes, that is top dollar especially without a winch, but I would say it has been a rebuilt one by the look of the shiny chassis.

5 minutes before auction end thought ide place a 400 bid on what appeared to be the best looking' trailer at that price. not another bid so im heading to Sydney to pick it up Monday morning. I was surprised I wasn't outbid but I guess 30 0dd trailers hitting the market in one auction didn't find 30 odd buyers. I did note that the ones reaching the 900 mark looked pretty clean examples at least by the pics supplied. just hoping mine isn't too rusted inside as no pics under the tarp that is on it . still for that price ill live with the shortcomings if any.


cheers
