Yeah, the brake controller might be reasonably priced, but how much are the brakes?

My Harbor Freight 4' x 8' folding trailer cost something like $200. What would it cost to add brakes to it?

Also, there is a difference between regularly hauling roof tear off material for a business, and occasionally hauling a yard of mulch 3 miles. A business can write off the cost of a brake controller, truck, 5th wheel hitch, etc.
