Hello,I joined today to see if you had a classified section where people post rigs for sale and rigs that are wanted to buy. I never could get the classified link to open up so I'll post my question here.Just bought a new 27' Lazy Daze (2013) from the factory. Purchased last month (March), has only 3100 miles on it. Just bought a toad but had not installed hitch yet. Wife and I decided after dreaming about full-timing for two years, this is not what we want to do.My question is, does the classified section on the forum usually work and would that be the proper section to place an ad for sale or should I post it in another section.Any advice would be appreciated. We have been reading your forum posts for years and have always enjoyed all the helpful information posted.Thank you all.

Hi,Items are not allowed to be listed for sale on the forums.I think you have a very high quality rv. Perhaps keep it for vacationing?

You can advertise it on the www.lifewithalazydazerv.com website where lots of people are interested in that fine brand!

Ed,I would start with the Lazy Daze forum. There is a for sale section. But, let me say that in this economy, you might have to look to sell at other places, too. Lazy Daze are great rvs (we are on our second one), and often sell rather quickly, especially one like your's that is relatively new, but due to the price, they are sometimes harder to sell. Best wishes.

Best wishes.Thank you very much for your reply. We looked on the Lazy Daze forum for their classifieds but you have to sign up at yahoo to do that. When we went to Yahoo to sign up they now require you to put in your phone number which we will not do. We will supply it to someone privately, but not list it on Yahoo.

I always use my cell number for things like that.
Considering it is almost never turned on, I really don't care what calls are made to it!

Thank you, obgraham. My cell phone is all I have. We are full-timing.

For the amount of money you are talking about it may be worth while getting a no service plan cell phone from some place like Walmart. Then throw the phone away (recycle) after the sale of the RV. That way any phone messages are on topic or junk. Once the sale is over with you are not bothered anymore.

DaCrema, that just might work! Once we get to Tucson and get the LD ready to sell I'll get a phone like you suggested and then just donate it when I'm done.

Thanks very much.

Dick, if there is a forum for "Sale/Wanted" I cannot find it. At the top of the forum page is a small hyperlink that says "Classified" but I have not been able to get it to load. One of the posters said it wasn't allowed.

Hi Cruzin,

Yahoo is now sending authorization codes via text messages on the phone. Giving a fake number won't help that process much.

If giving your phone number out bothers you, why not just give Yahoo a work phone number or (maybe I shouldn't say this) a fake phone number? Would it make a difference?

I tried that spud…giving a fake phone number.:B As soon as I hit next the site stated it would now send your activation code to THAT phone number. Nope. Haven't had a work number in years and if I did I certainly couldn't use it for a Yahoo account. Someone said you could also sign in with your Facebook or Google account. If you do that, there is a notification at the bottom of the page that states that your personal information from those accounts will be linked with your Yahoo account. Not in a million years. :R

Thanks for trying to help me out.

I'm not a fan of Yahoo, either, particularly after the lash-up that they've created on the message boards, but you may well find that you will have to list your contact information, including a phone number, with any of the 'RV classified' sites you choose to advertise that new LD with.

And, JMHO, but putting your new rig on a consignment lot is the *worst* way to sell it, primarily because you'll take a big financial hit by doing it this way!

What is your objection to having your phone number with Yahoo? Do you think it will compromise your 'privacy' or encourage more telemarketing calls or emails? I have not found that giving Yahoo (or Amazon, or any number of other 'reputable' sites) a phone number makes one whit of difference to anything, but YMMV.

The LD message board is a great resource for any and all things Lazy Daze, and many buyers and sellers have found their 'dream rig' in the 'Buying and Selling' files. Up to you, certainly.

Sorry you can't use your new rig; good luck.

Thank you very much JT for your reply and suggestions. I think you are correct about taking a huge hit financially by putting it up for consignment but that would be a last resort for me.

Yes, you do have to list your contact information when posting items for sale or for purchasing. That number is not publicly visible. You are the one who controls to whom it is given. Yahoo, on the other hand, is another story. You don't have to give it to hotmail, live mail, gmail. Yahoo does not need to have my phone number for me to join a forum.

Most probably I will put it on the sale lot at Davis-Monthan AFB, Tucson, AZ and advertise it myself.
