Tried to send a message to volvoclearinghouse, got kicked back.

No, we're actually trying to get some stuff out of here.
I picked up a couple more Amazon parts cars and a very unexpected yet totally awesome old cruiser that was one of those "had-to-buy-it" deals. So....yeah.

I did sell one car. And I have two more listed for sale.
I'm trying! I'm trying! It's hard!
How about a three way deal. VCH gives Mark the P1800 and a lot of cash. I get the trailer and I'll store the P1800 for Mark. VCH gets space.

It sounds like the only one getting screwed in that three-way is me.
An aweful lot like mine. Should I be asking for more?? https://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa=Main.Item&itemid=58&acctid=7650
In reply to markwemple:
You are confusing things by referring to the "overall length".
A flatbed trailer is measured by the bed length, and excludes the tongue. It would, however, include the beaver tail (when applicable).
You said it has a 12 1/2' deck. Does that include the beaver tail?
I think what you have there is a 14' trailer, not an 18' trailer.
In reply to markwemple:
Huh. OK, the link you showed had a beaver tail.
If it's only a 12' deck, it's a 12' trailer, not an 18' trailer.
Is my price too high? I'm being serious. Looking for honest opinions. With repairs and improvements I have more than 2k in it but that's my problem.
Hard to say...
You haven't posted any price. I know you said $2017 or less, but that's too nebulous.
You haven't posted any pics. You posted a link to another trailer that is not yours.
Your thread is outdated. The first post says you would like to trade for an enclosed trailer, but I am pretty sure you already have one.
Your details are sketchy. Not clear descriptions, items which could be an asset (like a winch), described as broken or questionable.
Some of your information is apparently incorrect (like calling it an 18' trailer). Can't tell for sure- might be able to with pictures.
It sounds like this is a very unique trailer that can't be compared to many others. A 12' deck with an 8' tongue is pretty odd, and not that useful to car guys. Can't tell for sure- might be able to with pictures.
Bottom line- start over. Start a clean thread with a good description, an actual asking price, and pictures. Your price might be fine, but your presentation is convoluted, and most of us don't know what you are selling.
Oh, and 10,000# rating on 6 lug wheels is possible, but unlikely. The ability to tow a Tahoe does not confirm this, since Tahoes weigh much less than 10,000#. Can't tell for sure- pictures might help. (Pic of a rating tag, or dimension of diameter of the axle tube would confirm)
Here's an example of your competition:
That's a brand new, 20' deck, car trailer with a full steel deck for $2500. Includes brand new tires, a beaver tail, and stake pockets. Nothing odd about it, perfect for a car guy.
