DIY Trailer Kit?

What do you think? I know i can build a lot better trailer than what is out there, i just need to start with the right stuff. If this doesnt sound good, i can buy a Dexter 3500lb axle and spring/shackle kit from a local distributor for about $200, but it doesnt include all the stuff this kit does. Suggestions?

I just bought a kit from www.abctrailerparts.com. Was $310 delivered. It does not include tires/wheels. It will be a week or 2 before it gets here.
