First of all you don't have to have a fancy shop and a registered business to be able to build a trailer every bit as good and usually better than a factory built one. Jon was showing pictures of what he built, like many others on here do. His project just happens to be for sale. For more info you had to go to the ad.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist or someone with X-Ray vision to see that it was built by someone with impeccable workmanship that knows what they're doing! You're in the construction business, I'm in the welding business. You can't just pick up a couple pieces of aluminum and slap a trailer together. A TIG welder alone to do aluminum will set you back at least 2 grand. A really good one will be over 5 grand. A good spool gun and the machine for it is another couple grand.
Lots of smaller trailers don't have a jack and if a person can't lift a tailgate that weighs less than 20 pounds, they mostly likely wouldn't be using a trailer anyways. You've got all these concerns about Jons utility trailer and then start talking about problems associated with dump boxes that are made in trailer factories? Did you pepper these companies with all your concerns too? Any savvy buyer will check out what they're buying before putting their money down. Until Jon told you, you ASSUMED his trailer was not professionally built. When you found out it was all of a sudden you're saying it shouldn't be on the forum. You could have avoided putting your foot in your mouth by simply asking if Jon had ever built trailers before because this one looks really good.
