I am posting for a friend.  She and her husband bought a new trailer in 1994, a 4-Star, 3 horse, slant load with rear tack.  The dressing room has a 4-foot short wall with the door on the short wall. 

 

The trailer was used for 1 year of high school rodeos and then about 5 years of hauling a halter baby to local open shows - definitely not hauled more than 75 times!  Excellent condition.  The trailer has been "yard art" since they quit showing due to a cancer diagnosis in Bill. 

 

Bill passed away and his wife is now dealing with back surgery drama/issues and cannot work, no life insurance, no money, etc.  She needs to sell the trailer. 

 

Can someone give me a value?  Starting point at selling?  It will need tires and probably a "going over" on the brakes, etc. only because it has been sitting. 

 

thanks,

cindy

Do a search on this site's trailer sales for a similar rig...price will also vary based on the part of the country you are in and the current demand

Really all depends on how fast you need to move it and how much work you are willing to do to move it.... Not being a smart *** but it is like asking how long a string is....

I just bought a 1996 HART that sounds like the same type trailer but this one has a weekend LQ package but still needs tires and I give $6000. for it.  I will have it detailed, new tires and brakes if needed and list it with an asking price of $9995.00.

Not pulling away from this site, but the fastest way to move it with little work and to get the most money is to list it on ebay.com.  You can put 24 pictures.  I have found that listing for 7 days is the best way to list them.
