What a dink. Restock fee? My wife would hound him for months just on the principal of it...

Hey Tom! I have some parts there to be picked up there but after I asked you how far it was I realized that this guy lives about a mile from my brother so I can have him pick up the parts. If it doesn't work for him I will let you know. I don't know of anybody with a trailer but if I hear of something I will let you know. What about buying a trailer out there and then selling it when you get her back here?

Awesome Cory!! I guess you can let the $15 slide. Now that it is all done you should post a link so we all know who not to buy from.

Glad hear you got most of your money back Cory.

Not a bad idea Troy but those things are pretty spendy.

Jay it will be nice to get her out here, she spends a lot of time by herself and we have a bunch of family here so that is a good thing.....

Maybe check CL out that way or something would be another thought. Yes they can be expensive. We used to have a 24' enclosed car hauler a few years ago and got a heck of a deal on it cause it had some storm damage but nothing serious. Sold that though.

Can't help you out on the trailer Tom, but if you run across a goosneck one remember I have that goosneck ball that should pin right into your fifth wheel rails you can use.

It looks like my brother will get them. The guy is even closer to him than I thought. They are basically neighbors.
