yup that price 1500 is kinda high, but then again you didn't mention the year and trimmings of that trailer so really I shouldn't say it's pricey. but for the base model year in the mid80s, that price bracket you gave of 4-9 is the range. got mine for within that bracket with just little work to be done otherwise it's in great condition, I'm happy with it. canvas and specially the travel cover are hard to find and expensive to replace on these, make those a priority on your check list...probably you know that already. so good luck with your search for these cool nimble pup-trailer.
