We recently purchased a trailer that was supposed to be in near mint condition.
The owner don't know what ''near mint'' condition means!... I'm sure he knew the camper had a leak!

Once we brought it home, I noticed that the front steps were a bit springy on one side: sure enough, the floor was giving way.
Did you even go inside the camper before you bought it ?.... Not sure how you missed that the first time ?
Yeah, everyone seems to find all the problems once they get them home!

So, any ideas/recommendations?
Before buying your next camper, be ''sure'' to check it out good even if it takes you all day!
Hope you get it fixed!
Thanks.
The reason I missed all this was because they were using a wooden staircase where the trailer was set up. Once I got it back home and used the fold out set, then I was aware of the step "sinking" on one side. The problem got worse until you could see the 2 x 3 sticking out under the floor. The funny thing is this: if the poor bracket design (that had the floor holding up the bracket instead of the other way round) had been replaced with a proper one, I may have not known about this problem until much later on.
Believe me: the next time I buy a camper, I will check it out good, as well as have an RV service place check it out to make sure.
