Deposit on MH purchase?
What is "average or normal " deposit when purchasing a new MH? Are most deposits refundable ? I realize they will vary from dealer to dealer.

We had to leave $2000.00 on our first motorhome and $3000.00 on our current one. I was told that the money was non-refundable on both Motorhomes. If we canceled the order/deal for any reason our deposit would be lost.
I would have walked out the door and said no thanks. Even if they are ordering the motorhome for me I want the ability to walk away from the deal if something comes up that I don't like.
But can you really expect a dealer to order a new motorhome for you decked out the way you want it, without putting a deposit down? It would be to easy for anyone to back out. Then when it comes in the dealer is stuck with it. Dealers would end up with so many units they couldn't sell, all by customers ordering and then backing out...
