You can hit RVT and RV Trader to get an idea on the prices, but they're usually higher than you end up paying. Then I would just watch Craigs List every day for new listings. There's a search all Craigs List site out there.
We did a lot of research and settled on a late nineties Safari. They were probably 2 dozen on the market, most either too much money or too far away. We found one in NH, about 2 hours away and tried to get the owner to let us look at it for 3 months. I finally gave up for the season and decided to restart the search in the spring. The week before our last trip of the season in the old gasser, a Sahara came up on CL for a good price and 10 miles from the campground we were going to that upcoming weekend. The seller agreed to drive it over there for us to look at it, and we bought White Tiger on the spot.
