Default Looking to buy a pull-behind trailer

Gents,
I am looking to buy a pull behind the bike cargo trailer.
Anyone have any suggestions. I dont want to spend over 1000$.
Saw this on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...010&rd=1,1

Finally, what is the difference...pulling, ride, performance...between the load springs and the torsion suspension.
Which one is better?

check harbor freight, i have seen some very small trailer kits there that are very reasonably priced. i have seen many bikes pulling them. they added stake sides and covered their belonging with tarps.

I had a Piggybacker, very nice trailer. I sold it after not using it for a while, now I'm looking for another trailer.

The Piggybacker is a very basic trailer, nothing fancy at all, but it pulls good and will get the job done.

I have to agree with the harbor freight trailer you slap a piece of plywood on it paint it and add a fiberglass car top carrier and you have a very good trailer with plenty of storage space for under 250 dollars.

with the Harbor trailer you can take time to shorten and narrow the frame if you like, cut a chunk from the axle and weld back together with a larger tube at the cut.
