While making every effort not to offend, I think it needs to be said that if you didn't know about these sites and resources 12 months ago when making your initial purchase, there is a very good chance that you may have overpaid at the time. Hopefully, you are not in an upside-down position where you owe more than it is worth. That part is none of our business and certainly doesn't require you to respond. However; when selling, it's good to remember that while you set the price, it is the market that eventually determines the real value. Priced right, it will sell in a timely manner. Best wishes to you that it all works in your favor. - msmith1199Explorer II

Don't get your hopes up of finding a private buyer to give you much more. You may find that person, but people looking for used motorhomes usually want a really good deal and there are a lot of used motorhomes out there priced really low. - 2oldmanExplorer IISomeone may pm you. Asking about what sites to sell on is a good way to sell on here.

- jplante4Explorer IIBought 2 and sold 1 from Craigslist. Just educate yourself about the scams. If a buyer's email contains any of these, don't ever respond.
- Willing to buy the "unit" and pay full price sight unseen
- On an offshore oil rig
- Buying for their father
- Will send an agent to pick it up
- Only take money through PayPal is a scam.
Now you may say "Oh that's obvious" but plenty of people have fallen for this. Also, if you respond, even if it's to say "Go Away", they add you email address to the list is active addresses and sell it to telemarketers. - lakebumExplorerThanks, I always forget about Craigslist.
