I used Craigslist and sold two of my RV's for my full asking price, well above NADA prices. The difference is do you think YOU can sell your RV or do you trust someone else to get you the best price.
On my last RV I determined how much I wanted, which included all of the extras that went with the RV. I then added $3000 to the price to allow for new tires and a hundred for RV park rental.
I knew from experience that the one thing that all potential buyers asked about was tires. My listing allowed the new buyer to pick ANY type of tires that they wanted and I would have them balanced and installed. My last buyer wanted Michelin SNOW tires. Not the easiest thing to find in Florida but I had them shipped in. I also included one night's stay in a local RV park so that they could learn about the systems. Obviously all of this was done after we had closed on the sale but, as I said, I got full asking price and the new buyers were happy. This was just something that set my listing apart from others and the buyers were willing to pay more to buy a coach from someone that was willing take the time to insure their happiness. If you want to give your coach away, there are several places that will gladly help you.
