How much to ask for an older Rice trailer?

[INTHEGROOVE]

I am now selling my old rice trailer - but i have not got a clue as to how much it is worth??
It is scruffy, but is in working order - had a new floor in that has only been stood on a few times. Has VERY expensive light weight rubber matting throughout and is front unload. Very comfy ride (have been in the back myself!) and has a newly built partition.
What should i ask for it do you think??
many thanks x

I sold mine for £950 in 24 hours... Should have put it up for more!

In the 4 yrs I had it it had new wheels, hitch, jockey wheel and floor.

Dam......i would have snapped that one up if its got a good new floor and matting etc!!!

I would ask for more than that! My paint work wasn't great was the only thing "wrong" with my trailer and I had people queuing to see it literally!

I have an old Rice. It's had a new floor, new rubber matting, new electrics/brake cables, I paid £800 for it. They are good trailers.

I would like to get a new hitch, new tyres and jockey wheel for it, and I would also like a single breast bar.

At Ashford Auction they were 3 or 4 there that all made about the 800 mark

Intereting post... I WILL have an old Rice for sale - once my dad has given it too me for my birthday (like 2 weeks ago - still waiting). But this one, isn't worth quite as much due to not being in such good condition...
Does have a single breast bar though and solid partition, ect...
Possibly have a queue already mind.... just need to give my father a kick up the watsit - he THINKS hes gonna need it for one trip, god knows what for!!
