There was an ad on craigslist here in Austin for a rotisserie for $300.00. I believe it was posted Thursday or Friday..

Why not build one? Some 2x10's (or 12's),some heavy duty casters, and a couple of pounds of screws. Probably cost less than $100.
The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

I'm with toxicz28, build one yourself. If you have a welder, make it out of steel and sell it when you're done with it. If no welder, make it out of wood. I stole this pic from jy211's sig. It's nice idea or template how to make your own....

Here is one I built last week. I picked up 50, 20 foot sticks of 1 1/2" angle for free...just had to haul away. It took 2 hours start to finish. Cart is 4' X 6'
I have enough steel to build about 18 more of these...

I use a Home Depot cart. Works pretty good. Just don't ask me how I got the cart.
