Many dealers don't serve their own web sites, or don't handle the inventory listings on the same site, they will jump to a listing service for this. It is the same with car dealers. The inventories don't get updated until someone puts in an order for the change, to the inventory service or web hosting service.
The few dealers that maintain their own sites tend to do better, but there will usually be more pressing issues than updating web sites promptly.

Maybe it makes more sense with shovels. I approached a local hardware manager with the comment, "Your competition is selling shovels for three dollars less than you are". He suggested I buy one from the competition. I said that I would have but they were out. The manager said the he would list his for three dollars less when he ran out.
A dealer can show any lowball prices on "Sold" units, since they do not have to match it today. I am not saying that it is impossible or illegal, just be careful out there.

One camper dealer shows listings on their site with the word "SOLD" by the price of some of their new campers. When I called to price one just like one of the "SOLD" models, I was informed that the prices had gone up 15-20% since those were sold.

It's no different than signs realtors leave up. They need someway of getting your attention. At least with RVs, you don't care what neighborhood they're in. They may have two or three more exactly the same in stock. Since you've got a live salesperson on the phone, talk to him for a minute or two.

I think many of you are missing another point of not removing sold RVs or other vehicles from inventory ads. They're left on to catch our interest even though they no longer exist. Then they try to sell you what they have left on their lots.
