You must have listed your RV at VERY VERY good price! :B
we had been to pretty every RV dealership in the valley ,most RV's that were on consignment were so ridiculously overpriced it was laughable...
And that would be because the OWNER priced it too high!
When you put your RV on consignment they ask the OWNER what they want it priced at. Then they add their commission which is IMHO very low.
ALSO when it is on consignment buyers can put in an offer on it. The dealership calls the owner and ask if they will take the lower offer. It is then up to the owner if he wants to accept the offer or not.
So those high priced ones' you saw? Those are 'OWNER'S who think their RV's are 'worth way more' than what they actually are worth. NOT the dealer or the fact that it was on consignment.:W
