We sold two RVs at PPL and were satisfied with them. We have not bought from them, but have shopped there many times. Some coaches are pristine, some rough, but it is always a learning experience. Had they had specifically what we sought at the time, we likely would have bought there.
I have never heard of PPL buying a coach - could this have been a misunderstanding?

No misunderstanding. Look at their web site. It specifically says they do buy RVs. Essentially they offered less than 50%, at that time a few months back, of what we paid new little more than a year later. I know there is depreciation and then there is outright poor business practice. This was 50% off the new sales price, not MSRP.
They have a great business model: Cost free inventory and 10% profit on every sale. Better than most new dealer's profit margin. Heck, they don't even have to pay the electric bill to keep them hooked up.
