If you don't have experience RVing, I would strongly recommend looking at used units first. There are many things that are really only learned by experience, and the depreciation on new RVs is quite steep, so figuring out what you really want and need can be very costly if you initially buy new.
Probably somewhere around 30% off MSRP is not uncommon for most class C's, as I understand it. It varies by brand and dealer and so forth.
Class A's typically are built on a bit heavier duty chassis than class C's, so often a class A will have a bit bigger tanks and additional features. As to basic equipment, though, there are not many differences. Leveling jacks are perhaps less common on class C's. Generators, appliances, and general systems are largely the same between lower-end class A's and class C's. (Fancy diesel pushers are in a rather different category altogether, of course.)
Frequently, many class A's are set up more for a couple while many class C's are set up for a family. This is not by any means a hard and fast rule; there are plenty of exceptions on either side.
