Advice on selling our Class A motorhome

To underline what's already been said -- post good pictures. Good means that they are well lighted, and that the RV is "staged" to look like it's on a showroom floor. If you can, have a video walk-through available that shows all of the highlights of the coach, and also have pictures available (upon request) that honestly show whatever flaws there are.

I just sold my 2002 Itasca horizon 39QD that had 113K miles on it in less than 4 days.

What did I do?

Cleaned it out and took really good quality photos.
Carefully explained all that I had done to it.
Posted it on Craigslist with no miles - as I wanted to explain that I bought it with 24K miles and put on 80K and carefully maintained it. (high miles can scare people)
Priced it right
Was present to show the people everything and explained all the things that were not perfect. I helped them understand the reality of what needs work on these things and what I had done to keep it up.

I got a check and later the same day bought my 2009 Newmar AllStar!

We sold a MH and a TT on RVtrader and craigslist.

Pictures, good pictures are a must. Get the buyer to see what you want them to see and how you want them to see it. That means taking pictures, evaluating them and trying to make them better. Video is also helpful but move slowly and try and not make people sea sick. You can host video on youtube and other sites.

Realistic about your price. Do some research and see what other private parties are asking for your coach. Don't over price. Dealers are usually over priced. Don't try and compete with them.

List all the variables about your coach, tank sizes, length, height, generator, options etc.

Accept wire transfers for payment. Otherwise go to the bank with the person to draw the cashiers check and sign over the title there. Don't accept cashiers checks or other options outside of the bank it was drawn on in your presence as it could be counterfeit.

I just sold my 2005 Phaeton myself. Years ago I sold my 2000 Discovery in one day, this time didnt go so well. My advice is everything must work as it was intended. People kept making appointments to see my coach and almost all of them gave me the sense they wanted to be looking at a new one, but were in the price range of mine. Also I saw someone else mention to look at other listings, this is a good idea as you will see some people will take photos of their coach with all kinds of clutter on the counter tops or elsewhere which gives potential buyers the sense you do not take care of it. When I took the photos of my outside I removed everything from the storage bays and cleaned them well, then took the photos in good light. We did the same for the inside but moved everything from the front to the back and took the photos of the front, then did the same for the back half. List all the improvements you have done and the date you did them. Another thing I did that I got a lot of positive comments on was I divided the mileage by how old the coach was to shown my average yearly miles, do this with the genset as well. If the tires are more than 4 years old I would consider replacing them, you may be able to get the cost back but even if you dont it will greatly help your efforts. Have maintenance records handy when showing. If you are not living in it while trying to sell it, then I would remove everything from the cabinets. The first thing people do when they get inside is open all the cabinets as they dream of ways to overload it.
Sorry if I rambled I wrote stuff as I thought of it from my experience which just happened last week.

I like craigslist because it is free. YOU WILL however get more "tire kickers" just messing around. State that you want serious buyers only and don't want to waste time with low ballers.

We used rvt.com. Be realist in your pricing! Take lots of pictures. Write an honest description. If you have the service record make it available to prospective buyers. Take shoppers on a test drive and offer to let them drive the coach. Fortunately we had a huge unused Sea World parking lot to use for test drives. Be aware that the first people to respond to your ad might be from RV dealers looking to lowball your coach. We got a fair price for the RV and our toad as a package. We were very pleased with rvt.com and the entire process.

Just went through this trying to help a friend sell her motor home after her husband passed away unexpectedly. We took lots of pictures, priced it based on conversations with a dealer sales rep I have confidence in, and in line with comparable units on-line.
Put an ad together on RV Trader that allowed the maximum number of pictures (pricing in RV Trader is based on number of pictures and time ad will be on-line) and had a good description of the unit.
Response was excellent (both interested parties and quick response to their inquiries) and we had someone from 100 miles away look at it 8 days after initial posting and made an almost full price offer we accepted.

Keys - lots of pictures, good description, priced "right" to start with.

Sold ours on Craigslist. Price it right and it will sell. Lots of pics and info and learn how to weed out scammers. It's easier than it used to be. Buyers now have good financing options. the folks that bought ours went through GS/bank of the west and they handled all the docs, inspections etc. Pretty easy process.

Sold my 94 PaceArrow on Craigslist in two days.
Describe it correctly and price it right.

We sold our Class C on Craigslist. And bought our DP out of state off Craigslist. Just make sure you bump your add frequently as it will get buried by all the dealer adds daily. Also be aware of the scammers! It's usually pretty easy to spot them.
