I found the pulse of the going market price at dealership used RV lots.
Dealerships know what the wholesale price is because it is their business. They price to sell or ship the unit out to auction.
And yes there are going to be overpriced ones on the lot but those are going to be the consignment units.
Prices of vehicles of 'any' type differ from state to state and to locale to locale.
Where I use to live what an RV would sell for in Illinois would be higher than just 100 miles over the state line into Wisconsin.
Since I've moved I drove around to the dealership to get an idea of what the going prices where and price my RV's accordingly. All of mine have sold within days.
Re pricing of RV's on the dealer's used lot, my experience has been different. The dealers I have been to, the used units are generally vastly overpriced. This I believe for the purpose of allowing plenty of room to pad an offered trade in price to the potential customer. Plus they don't even do any detailing, let alone repairs to the used units. Many of them I have noticed to be quite dirty and neglected.
