- Considering all the lowballers and hassle I had selling my truck camper on craigslist, I think that's a great idea.
- Their going to take maybe 20% right off the top. Realize that your also competing with other used and new units so be prepared to take way less that you may think its worth.
- Are you signing over the title to the consignment business? If he goes rouge or bankrupt, it’s HIS asset.
- Number 1, YOU hold the title until the consignment outfit calls and needs you and the title for transfer of money and title. Do not under any conditions leave the title with them. If they don't want to work that way, take your business elsewhere. And beware, if the outfit sells new RVs, there main direction will be to take customers to their new floor planned units first.
- I sold one on consignment at CW, but had to take wholesale to move it.
- I was in this place the other day looking at buying.
They had plenty of customers and they really seemed to be moving RVs. There were a few we wanted to see but they were already sold.

They were also fair and decent on the buyer's side as well which is probably why they had do many buyers.
Seemed like decent people. - Look at pplmotorhomes.com
- I have not used a consignment dealer ..... yet. But plan to when I decide to sell. I prefer to let someone else handle that hassle of advertising, showing, and handling the transfer and money collection.
Research them carefully for reviews and terms and conditions. Some such as PPLmotorhomes charge a flat 10% fee. Some ask you to set a minimum price you will take and they will keep what ever they can get above that. Some have monthly charges for them to keep it. Some don’t. Make sure you are clear on what that dealer charges. Dianeclem wrote:

Is this the same as the posts over on the Redwood forums? If not, you may want to try there...- Good advice above....and make sure that you understand who is responsible for insurance coverage on the unit while it is on their lot..
