Assuming they are the same quailty/age would it be cheaper to have a conversion professionally built or buy one that is already converted?
Many thanks in advance

From what I have seen a used conversion should be cheaper.
You should be able to find one a year or two old that should be cheaper than getting one built and you get to see the finished product before you buy. Also no build delays!
Personally I would only get a conversion built if I wanted something very specific or wanted to supply the chasis.

I decided to by a chasis for my first box and do it myself, but it took me 3 years! If i were you, i would buy one ready done, from one of the conversion companies, but beware. You get what you pay for.
