Sales Advice - Lots f Interested Buyers!

You priced the MH for a set price. The first person to show up and put the advertised price IN CASH is the new owner. f you stated a price you should live with it. If you start a bidding war, I would walk away because you are being dishonest in your requested sale price. I would tel you to keep it and let everyone know that you are not to be trusted.

I've heard of buyers remorse and I'm thinking I've now heard of seller's remorse.

I just sold my old trailer. I first did a back of the hand calculation and figured I paid $6500 for it 12 years ago, so really I don't need anything for it now to be a good deal, lol. After some quick craigslist comps and Nada research, I set the price way higher than I figured I could get, but lower than I saw others for sale, $4500.

Got a ton of texts/calls in the first day, and the first guy that drove over bought it for $4k after a little haggling (part of the charm of craigslist, it just is what it is). He didn't even go inside or check out any of the systems, made me feel a little stupid for spending a lot of time fixing little things and getting it all ready for sale!

Despite his obviously BS story about needing it for his homeless sister, I'm 99% sure he's just going to sit on it all winter and resell in the spring for a quick $1000 more than he paid. Good for him, if you're into the whole bartering thing. Some people enjoy that stuff I guess.

Different price point than the op of course, 1k is different than 10k. But for me a quick and easy sale is totally worth it.

And now I have cash in hand to have leveling jacks installed on my new (to me) motorhome! :B

Because RVs sell better in March and April than they do in November.

A lot of responses here but not many answers. It is pretty clear you under-priced the rig. Doesn't make you a bad person. Re-price it if you want. You have no professional, ethical or moral obligations here. It was an honest mistake. The rig is worth what a buyer is willing to pay.

I think your own suggestion was the best one yet. Let the interested parties know you will accept offers up to a certain date. Then take the best one. If that transaction falls apart you can always go back to the next best offer. Or the one after that. The interest is clear. These buyers, or at least one of them, will still be put there. One is all you need.
Good Luck!

"mike brez"......I understood EXACTLY what you meant, ethically and morally, do the right thing. The right thing would be to sell it to the first person who comes with cash and pays the asking price.

As usual, some here take something literally and then argue about it....one person in particular!

Cruz-in, I think you've already gotten your best advice. You'll just have to sort thru the 'stuff' to find it. This isn't a real estate transaction so all that can be dismissed. If you have a list of buyers, start at the top and start calling. First with the cash gets the rig. Pretty simple. Don't be surprised though if no one comes through. Cash talks, BS walks.....good luck...Dennis

Cruz-in, you are selling a Monaco Vesta, right?

It would be nice if Monaco resurrected that coach with a Cummins and get all the quirks taken out. There is a HUGE thread on the other RV site specifically for the Vesta.

Those were/are nice coaches and a little tweeking would make it a fantastic seller again! (in my opinion). :D

Good luck,
MM.

In God we trust, all others pay cash

Cash only and a very clear statement of “as is” crafted to your state’s requirements including your state’s laws solely apply.
