What I did when we were looking is use the search on Horse Trailers for sale above on this site and see what the trailers I was looking at were going for--
Not a blue book-- but a general retail pricing guide

NOPE! The only thing you can do is search this site along with any other trailer site you can find that make and model offered for sale and compair!

Welcome to the Forum.
Please don't SHOUT !
As with anything, it is "Worth" what a willing buyer will pay and a willing seller will accept.
What you see in ads is ASKING price, what you believe folk may have added for negotiating margin is up to you.
Point is you probably want to know selling price.
ONE way to calibrate an asking price is to add 10% to it and ask a lending institution what size loan they would be willing to consider.
Three years ago they would have just said, "OK, do you want to borrow the sales tax, licensing and registration fees as well ?"
Now it is more likely to be realistic (-:

Please advise. Went to N.A.D.A. the only Bison is a 2009. Is there a blue book type web site for horse trailers?
