I have thought, too, that when I do sell my RV, I would like to sell it directly to try to get a better price than through consignment.
Also, since the sale would be my last RV (I would not be planning to buy another RV), I figure it could appeal to a buyer to have the cabinets and hatches already full of all the equipment they need to hit the road (everything from tools to dishes, etc.).
Is this a reasonable expectation?
Also... what are the best RV marketing channels or method through which to find prospects for direct sale?
