- SteveBExplorerTo anyone selling on Craigslist, getting nothing but scams. Check the wording of your ad to see if there is anything that might be pick up by the scam bots. I was trying to sell a fog machine last year and the name of it was "Party Fogger". You would not believe the amount of X rated scam/spam I got. It was the word "Party". When I changed the ad, the nonsense stopped. Then I gave it to a coworker for their Halloween display.
- noe-placeExplorerPut it on your front lawn so you can talk money face to face with prospects and they can look it over all at one time.

Depends on what you want. If you want the max amount of money and are willing to wade through the scammers and to deal with people directly, go through Craigslist or RVTrader. If you just want to get it off of your hands, sell it to a dealer or go consignment. You'll take home less, but you'll have no hassle.
When I got rid of our MH last fall, I went the consignment route. I figure I lost about $5000 on the deal, but it was worth it not to have to deal with people coming by and worrying about getting ripped off.
I only had one guy come by to look at it, and he bought it. - dezl_drExplorerWe listed ours on craigslist...only got scammers. Then DW listed it on facebook and sold it in about 3-weeks.
