Many times the owner that has a unit for sale may not have it empty of all personal items, some put the rv up for sale and will remove everything once it sells. So if that is the case it would be impossible to get a true empty weight. Using the brochure empty weights printed there can be inaccurate also as they don't always include any optional items in the empty weights. So running the empty trailer over a set of scales gives a much better idea on what you are dealing with. Fill with water, empty other tanks and see whats what. It is not out of the question to tell the owner you would gladly pay for the weigh to know if the trailer is what you can safely haul and load with your things.
