Used MH discounts
I tried doing a search and it came up blank. Is there a website to get a ballpark idea what used motorhomes are selling for? My buddy's brother just retired and is looking at new and used gassers. ...

Any discussion of percentage of discount on a used motor home is completely pointless. There are a hundred variables possible including major ones such as mileage, equipment level, condition, make and model, etc.
One can find units priced 50% more than true value to units priced at a bargain if one paid full asking price. There are two kinds of buyers. Those that insist on using the discount offered as an indicator of value and those who have done the research and actually know what the true current value is for a particular unit compared to what is available. Theoretical "book value" or some suggestion found on the Internet is not a substitute for comparison shopping.
I concur, totally!
A good plan would be to settle on a unit you like and search for it on the web, country-wide and over at least a couple of months. Once you have a good set of asking values, make some offers to see what happens, and go from there. You can easily come to terms, pending an inspection, using the web and telephone, and if necessary fly one-way to complete the purchase.
