How can you say good by to hello kitty? :shock: Must be hard even if you are not leaving teardropping! Might want to add some profile outside pics for those who have not seen it in person.

I love this teardrop! The galley is awesome. If we didnt have The Hill House I would get this in a heart beat. Whoever gets this will love it.

Well sir, you have a lot to learn about teardrop trailers. Tell you what, I only paid $200 for mine and I would be willing to sale it to you for $6000.
In other words, it's not what one paid for it in the beginning but what it's worth now. Kay is asking a fair price for her teardrop.
:thumbsup:

I don't come here very often, but it is like everything else. Some of us buy things cheap and put a lot of time and money into something and then need to move on. Then we sell our equipment for a fair price and see what we can get for it. I do the same with bicycles and motorcycles.

I thought it was a rather rude post, just because she bought it for $400.00 does not mean it is not worth what is being asked. I thought my motorcycle was worth more than I sold it for, but the economy had changed and the market changed.

Good luck on your sale, and don't worry about the rude posts.

I thought it was a fair price for an 55 year old classic trailer in very good condition. I'm sure there is a lady teardropper wanna be out there that could use a classic trailer. Maybe she is a classic herself and they are made for each other. On the other hand, it would take a man who was sure of his masculinity but in touch with his feminine side to camp alone in it. :lol: Hello Kitty!!

its not what you pay for something it is what it is worth when you sell it.

I once bought a custom motorcycle and custom trailer just to get the trailer and a friend of mine could not understand why i would not sell him the bike for 2000.00 less than what it was worth because i bought it so cheap and had the trailer that i wanted
