VALUE OF 1992 Shasta pickup truck camper
Trying to get the seller of the listed camper to understand the NADA value of their camper is $1500. They are asking $3500 and will only come down to $3000. http://carbondale.craigslist.org/rvs/44...

I was totally expecting a comment of similar nature. I don't want to sound defensive, however I would like to explain my reasoning.
First, the Palomino is 8 years newer. Second, I have spoken to the Palomino owner and the Shasta owner has never called me back.
I understand that repairing a camper may cost $$, however the book value of the shasta is $1500, and the book value of the Palomino is $3500-4000. That gives me $2500 to play with and keep it below value. I expect to spend $1000 on repairs. Bonus, I get to put it back together how I want!
after spending $3000 on a bronco 1500 last year not knowing it had water damage and repairing it for around $500 makes me comfortable from talking with the maverick owner.
This might be $1000 with damage, however I know it's there and plan on doing something about it, not discovering it later as was with the last camper.
Thanks for all the input and I truly appreciate it. Glad to be a part of the rv.net family. I am sure i will be posting a repair report and asking several questions along the way.
