My 2017 quest for the perfect TT!
Well, another name change. This thread has gone from me look for sales advice to, me looking for a new trailer. So I am changing the name again to better reflect where this thread is currently at.

Screening the scammers who are asking for a check for you to pay shipping costs for their carrier to come pick it type bs is a different issue and just part of getting FREE advertising. Just forget it and delete that stuff. Go put it on there for $5200 and forget all the other stuff. It's not as personal as you are making it. It's like a flow chart or a trouble shooting chart.
If you want it gone NOW put it on there for $4000 today only bring cash and accept $3500. If you want $6000 or anything close keep torturing yourself and end up with it still sitting there. Just being honest. It socks but it is what it is.
Thanks for being honest. I am not torturing myself. I am just chatting here. I have to say something, or else my comments would be blank.
You are correct that I could sell it today for $4000, but people her expect to haggle and if you are not will to haggle, they won't deal with you. If I list it for $4000 and they come out and feel the soft floor, they are going to offer $2000. It I want $4000, I have to start at $6000 so we can negotiate down to that.
But my problem has not been negotiation. My problem is that nobody that has come out here had any money. They all said, "We have to go apply for a loan at the bank". One actually said she needed me to drag the trailer to a town 60 miles away and present the title to her bank before she could apply for a loan to pay for it. These are not serious buyers; they are people toying with the idea of buying a TT and wasting my time. And I consider that to be rude.
