I see a lot of posts here about what is a fair new price, how much off list, etc. If there is no objective measure for the price of an RV when it is new, it makes sense that there would not be an objective measure for the price when it is used.
I have seen pretty much the same stuff and prices you have seen. I think they see the asking prices on the 'net, and get unrealistic hopes. We bought a late 90s DP for $20K last year, and saw the same model and claimed similar condition for as much as $50K.
Fourteen years old need not be rusting and falling apart, but it seems to be common.
