sell or trade?
Which is the best way to go..sell privately or trade?
Forum Discussion
Consignment would seem the best option, assuming you can afford to buy the new one before the old one sells (I couldn't, not many could)
Being without a motorhome while mine sits in a consignment lot would not be an option.
I've no problem with private sales, do a lot of craiglist for cars and household items in both directions. Biggest was a car I sold for 25k. Getting the money (from a Canadian buyer!) was tricky, but not terrible. He had no problem delaying pickup until I was certain I had been paid.
The hundred K from a motorhome like ours, moving that kinda money boggles the mind. Much easier to drive to the dealer and swap keys!
