Many believe that the best prices (buying) is at RV shows. When is the best time to sell ?

The time to buy is when you have cash and aren't desperate to get a unit. If you can walk away, you can negotiate great deals any time of the year.
There is some seasonality but it depends where you are.
- In most of the country, prices are slightly lower in the fall and higher in spring/early summer.
- In snowbird areas, it's the reverse.
But being able to walk away will easily outweigh any minor seasonality issue.
Think about it, if you could save 20% by buying in the fall, dealers would just sit on units until spring and make drastically higher profits. 2-3% and an argument can be made that it costs them to hold the stock for 3-5months, so it's worth take a lower price.
