Internet Sales

I have been looking for a 05/06 Winnebago Adventurer 38J. Lots of Ads do not have a price or many pictures, have to contact dealer for information and then salesman does not respond back. I guess they are so busy making money they don't have time to sell any more vehicles.
Maybe I will have better luck tomorrow... Rant Over ..
  • I have a device called a TELEPHONE..! If I want to know NOW...I use it!
  • Sometimes it's just a matter of finding a dealer who does internet sales well. Car/truck dealers are the same way. I've often bought new cars online and most dealers don't respond to inquiries. But, there was always one who not only responded, but called within 10 minutes. We negotiated over the phone and a few days later, they delivered the car.

    At the time, I was taking care of my wife and didn't have the time to drive 100 miles and visit different dealers. The salesman who called generally had a very good price and got the sale. I don't think the others had a clue that they were passing up a serious buyer. They were too busy feeding on lookie-Lous walking the lot.
  • I can't know WHICH sites you've contacted.

    As an example of how bad sales sites can be - I listed my motorhome on one very large site three years ago - despite my notifictions to them three years ago, it's still there! I don't know HOW THEY CAN PROFIT from this, but "there it is".

    They do that so that it looks like they have a lot of inventory.
