I did get a quote from RVdirect, and was pretty amazed. I can get a new 2014 Sunseeker for the same "clearnce" price as some of the local dealers are advertising used ones for.
If I wasn't trading in my current class C I would just order one.
I do plan on using their quote for a negotiation tool. Hopefully I can make something work. Otherwise I will sell it myself and order one.
I found the exact same things on the pricing of late model used ones. I can only assume there is a lot of room in those for negotiation or trade, otherwise it doesn't make sense.
Yes, the trade definitely obscures the pricing. I did an accidental trade in my deal. I had gotten two dealers down below the RVD price, just by telling them the price, and then another round again when the first dealer beat it. So the one I decided to go with, I asked about a trade, without really expecting to do it. I told him, "ok, I know how it works, I know that now you've given me your best price, you can only give me wholesale on a trade. But hey, give me your trade value, I won't be insulted, let's see if it works out." At this point, if your unit is marketable, he will make you an offer, and you can take it or leave it. Our dealer made us enough of an offer that we took it. We could do better selling it ourselves, but it was good enough for us. The point of all this is that we are not good negotiators, but having the RVD price stiffened our spines and we were able to say no, thanks, until they made the deal work. I feel a lot more confident about it; it was easier than I thought.
