I sold a popup on CL for $1,800, 8 years after I paid $1,000 for it. Dealer wouldn't give anything in trade. I sold my 2-yr old trailer on CL for $17,000, when dealer offered $10,000 in trade. Pup was on CL for one day. TT was on CL for two weeks. Well worth the time and effort, as I weeded-out those not very interested in buying, and they never made an appointment.
OP asked for ideas on where to sell theirs. OP has received advice as to where, and how. Now they know what to expect, and have more information about selling themselves, or accepting the dealer's trade offer. I just felt your post was condescending to the OP, and made many assumptions about OP. OP came and asked advice, but you, in essence, treated him like an ignorant putz. No need for that. He may already know what you "pointed out" to him, and still wants to take a stab at selling it himself. He just wanted to know where others sold theirs.
Whoops - avoidcrowds must have edited his post since the BEST part wasn't included in what was quoted above, or maybe it was magically altered every place in the entire thread 2 hours after the OP - pesky forum software.
Someone should take their own advice - read #4 on page 1.
OP - Craigslist is a great place to sell a TT. You have to deal with the chaf, but you will figure it out. Someone mentioned RV trader as well. As stated, present it well, have lots of pictures and a good write up to peak interest.
