Selling My Horse Trailer

Sunday, October 27, 2019


This is a photo of my 1979 Miley Horse Trailer. I purchased this trailer new, in 1979. It is 40 yrs old. It was stored under a carport, or inside a shop...and the condition is apparent. Great condition, most people would be surprised at the age.

I put new tires on it, and had a professional trailer guy fix the wiring and lights.

I priced it higher than all the similar trailers. Then, I waited to see what would happen.

An email...wanting to buy it at the full price. The weird thing was that I never met anyone face to face. I negotiated the sale and delivery without anyone looking at it in person.

The odd thing is this man purchased my trailer, and another Miley of the same era. He is having them shipped to Germany. No kidding!

There are no horse trailers like this in Europe, they do not have anything like this. They will be totally unique. He has plans to change them into travelling liquor bars, for weddings, fairs, and events.

My opinion is that this is a pretty expensive project. Interesting, and I thought that it was a scam at first. They FedEx'd the payment, and yes it was good. I made them wait a month before I would release the trailer.

I sold it for much more that I paid for it! Double! Pretty good return!

Now, hubby is saying...I should priced it higher.....OMG...........he didn't do the stuff that I did to sell it. UGGGG.....
