The dealer we've put ours with has both new and consignment rigs. Most of the consignments are around 1996 - 2004. What we liked about the deal is that it's a fixed sales fee of $595.00. Friends put their 98 Bounder (32', no slides) with this dealer in late August and it sold the third week in October for only slightly less then the dealer's initial estimate.
Our rig is out front by the street. There's still a few details to be sorted. but we're hoping it will be sold before the end of the year. The dealer said that this is a good time for sales, as people start getting antsy about winter and decide be snowbirds.
It's always a good time to sell RVs, ask any dealer :) In the dead of winter people are thinking about summer. In the fall people are looking for good deals, you get the drift. As a retired salesman (life insurance not RVs) I can assure you that there is never a bad time to purchase a product that is for sale. If there is a willing buyer and a willing seller, the time is right.
Good Luck and I hope your willing buyer comes along soon.
