~11K difference between same trailers...

[Raife]

What am I missing that the two listings have almost ~11K difference. If you look through other listings for the same model there is the range from ~15K to ~28K...generally the same model year (or close)

Any info is appreciated.

Thank you.

^^^^^ I really think the market will be flooded with slightly used RV's that folks purchased because they cannot go to the Ritz Carlton, or whatever..

I was talking to my friend that manages a RV dealership and he cannot keep inventory, it goes out almost as fast as it comes in.. AND, probably 75% are to new owners..

We've bought three trailers from Vogt (the higher priced dealer) over the past 20 years, and were able to negotiate down to a normal level.

Right now, they're listing MSRP because of their location and they're one of the few Jayco dealers in the MetroMess. Given the market, they'll probably get someone willing to pay that thinking it's still a good deal if it means getting a vacation in this year or being able to homeschool & telework from somewhere other than home.

Can't wait to see what the used market looks like in January when all those people who bought trailers because they couldn't take a cruise start to realize that trailer and storage payments don't go away.

Some dealers list their selling price, other dealers list MSRP.
I see it all the time on RV Trader dealer listings.

But it had a lot of rust on the frame.

Common scenario for rigs that are transported from factory to dealer in the winter months, when there's snow, ice, salt, sand and road deicer on the roads.

Find out what the MSRP is and start the negotiations at 35% off. Most dealers are at 30% off.
However right now with a very low supply of RV's everywhere, be prepared to pay more than that 30% off.

That 30% off is only valid for RV's not TT's you will never get 30% off a TT unless its a year or two old.

I have bought a few TT over the years and received at least 30% off on each one(brand new). My current trailer was only one month from production date when purchased and received 34% off of the manufacturer's price list received directly from the factory by asking them. They are out there if you look

That’s for all RV’s. At least from everyone I have ever seen at an RV show!

My daughter just took delivery of her 2021 FR Vibe back in May.. I helped her get the price down to 40% of the MSRP.. you gotta know when to walk away, if they want to sell it, they will call you

Inflation can be the only result of all this borrowing, borrowing, borrowing we have been doing for the last decade or so. Keeps getting worse and devaluation, (inflation) is inevitable.

If you can you may consider delaying your purchase till 2021 when the big financial crash occurs.

Prices will be much lower at that time.

Probably true. All these CSO's the financial world are trading are worthless, the same as the CDO's of the Bush era. Why this is happening is obvious.

The only price that matters is the Out The Door price. I always ask for that first and walk away if there is any hemming and hawing.
Look all over the net for the model you want and, pretty soon, you’ll have a good idea of the cost.

we have been camping for 30+ years, back in 2008 we purchased our 1st LARGE 5th wheel.

When shopping we found IDENTICAL trailers with close to $8k difference on the actual MSRP ?? funny, right !

You need to do your homework, find the actual MSRP, not the inflated one... find the factory REP, they will usually work with YOU, for YOU..

Good Luck !
