With anything up for sale, one will never know the story behind the story - the exact grounds for the advertisement in the classified listings portion of the local magazine. Let's use a car trailer for sale for the explanation of this assertion. The first strange thing about such an advertisement is the wording - "car trailer for sale". Is this a trailer onto which cars are loaded to be transported, or is this a trailer to be hitched behind a car?
Let's pretend that the trailer was designed and made as a general purpose trailer a few years ago and was sold to a young family with two young children. The trailer was originally designed to act as a baggage carrier on weekends and, obviously, on that ever so important once a year leave, which seemed rather more than an annual pilgrimage to the sea. Boy, would it be jam-packed Strollers, playpens, buckets, spades, food, alcoholic beverages, bed linen, fishing tackle, take your pick. Although it was somewhat overloaded and overstressed, for that matter, without a drop of oil or a smear of grease sometimes to keep the trailer happy and completely functional, it simply carried on dutifully.
On the second year, the guy - the dad of the two babies - found that the trailers' lid could be taken off. Now suddenly, the trailer was being employed to cart stones, sand, cement, building timber along with other things because baby number 1 had to have its own room. Then, naturally, all the rubble had to be removed and the back agony started once again. Ouch The scuff marks and lacerations were so disheartening to the poor trailer. Before long, the trailer was over-worked and promoted as "car trailer for sale" - just like that
The moral of the story is that it is very simple to be fooled by an advert that simply states "car trailer for sale" - it should in fact state: Dilapidated, dinged and exhausted trailer sold for considerably more that it is actually worth" Before purchasing a car trailer for sale, make certain you investigate the history of the trailer.
