Advice on how to sell my RV quickly

I am in a bind and unfortunately need to sell my RV, I purchased it a couple of years ago from an estate, its in great shape, I love it, but the kids are in college now and tuition is killing me. I've tried selling it on eBay twice, the first time I started the auction at $5000, it was bid up to 18500, the buyer backed out saying they couldn't get financed? took 45 days to get it resolved. The second time it sold for 17800, this time the buyer contacted me briefly then I never heard from her again, another 30 + days or so later, I still need to sell it even more ASAP. How can I find a real buyer? I dont honestly know what its worth, but I'm willing to lower the price if i could just get it sold. can anyone help with this?

  • Seriously, sell it on Craigslist and list it in as many nearby cities as possible. Get it checked out by nearby mechanic and have the paperwork/checklist available. I just dont think eBay is very efficient for vehicles.

    I've bought and sold several RVs on craigslist.
    Add as many photos of critical elements as you can (I think the limit is 25), and be as detailed and honest in your description as possible.
