The real market dictates the selling price and dealers only offer what they see at auctions. (There's a large private network with this information that only dealers have access to.)
All you can do is pick what you feel is a fair starting price based on NADA. If you dont get any real offers or even showings in 1-2 months, you're either too high or its the wrong time of year. And this is not a good time of year, everyone is looking for low ball pricing right now.
Sometimes, you have to take a hit to get what you want. IF what you want is that important to you.
Yeah, we know we'll take a hit, but wanted to at least try to soften the blow a little bit :) It's worse than it looks on paper, we refinanced the camper earlier this year and had to pay 4k back then to even get a loan because the finance company didn't think it was worth what we originally owed on it.
We aren't in a big hurry, mainly just want the new 5er before next summer if we can.
