Where to sell RV items other than craigslist?

I have sold my fifth wheel and decided not to get a new one. As such, I have items I need to sell. Can anyone recommend a method for selling these items that doesn't involve craigslist?
  • Send me a PM as to what your selling. I live in Talladega and may need something. I've had, good luck with Craigslist. Sold my Reese 16K slider to a gentleman in Montgomery, 2 hours south and my tool box to someone in Madison, 2 hours north. If safety is a concern offer to meet them in town. I always meet people at Walgreens,
  • Sold alot on Ebay local classified.Its free no charge and covers about 100 miles.
    Just make sure you do the local.Always had good luck
  • I've sold equally as well between Craigslist, Ebay, and RVTrader. I can never tell which one is going to come through until it happens. Weird as it seems, I seem to have the best luck in the Winter, when the supply is low.
  • E-bay?

    Escapees has a for sale forum
    No charge to post the item - but you would have to join the forums (free) to post.

    BTW - Craigs List is the best to get it done.
    Just know what to do and not to do - with potential buyers (common sense).

    I prefer a voice mail only phone number and return the calls.
    Plus you can "pre-screen" them.
    Saves lots of early and late calls - and leave a message when it's sold, for no more calls.

    YMMV.
  • Any free papers in your area? Penny Saver, or the like? Just make sure you meet in public and only take cash.
