Hi we are looking at buying a camper trailer for around 5-8k. I looked at some on Ebay, there is one model there by A and S powersellers based in mulgrave vic. I think its a Mars camper?
Does anyone know about this particular model, and why do they auction and sell so many at that price?
Price is $8,999 but auction for about 5k.
Or any other suggestions on campers near melbourne??

In this price bracket the quality and value varies considerably. If you're half handy they are not hard to build yourself, after all they are basically a tent bolted onto a trailer.

If you need any tips, give me a call on 9706 6527.

Have a look at the TRADER section on this site, there are a number for sale in the price bracket you have mentioned.

Hi Campfire guru.

I have no interesr, but am a great fan of the Tambo camper trailers, and if you don't go overbord with your extras, you can have a new one for that money.
and they are as tuff as they come.

Cheers Good luck.

I second TAMBO CAMPERS, the cooper starts from $7890 very tough and robust, click this link, http://www.tambocampers.com.au/Cooper.html

Also you should consider CASUARINA CAMPERS The wenworth is $8990 but with lots of extra's. click this link, http://www.casuarinacampers.com.au/
