The place I work offers these for rent to employees, very low rates. They are rentals, treated like rentals amd sold As-Is.
They are auctioning off two of them, both are Rockwell Freedom model, I don't know if more than one size is available, I'll walk down and look.
Last time they did this, they went for ~$300.
I have no interest, but if you guys do, I'll buy it and flip it.
Edit: Model 1640.
Step 2: buy cheap camper.
Step 2: buy cheap 4x4 truck
Step 3: take trailer apart and mount all the bits from it in the bed of the truck
Step 4: make new utility trailer out of camper frame
Step 5: profit
I would love one that is useable. trying to figure out a way to get it to Florida.
I am a bit confused and i know this was an easy one....(tired tonight)
SO you buy for $300 add in a bit for your time and resell to me?
How rough are they?

Yes, only because I have no need for one. Not very rough, they're just put away wet. I think a weekend with soap and water, some airing out, some WD-40 and it will be fine. I believe these are 2008 models.

I think SWMBO is interested, but a few concerns:
1) driving to/from NY to get it
2) can her Element tow it? (I think so, not the MR2 but probably this thing)
3) storage
Mostly #1 I think.
What's the timing? I may have an interest. Checking with SWMBO
Sealed bids open today, close on Wednesday next week.
I bid $333.34 on both because I know a guy that is bidding $333.33
If it's something you want and want to bid higher, I'll bid on your behalf.
Boink me and I'll find out where you live.

For reference, one is a 2006, the other is a 2008.

At that price I will buy both from you if they are in decent enough shape. I am sort of local as well.
My bids are in, if you want to go higher let me know by next Wednesday.

Waiting to hear with bated breath
"put away wet" likely means you have mold in the canvas. I don't; think soap and water will take that away.

I got a call from 914driver, he's out of town and has limited cell coverage. He didn't get either, one went for $1000 and the other for $1050.
"put away wet" is a colloquialism that doesn't necessarily involve water.

Thanks for the update. I'm glad they went for way more than my bid, not just a little bit more.
