cny first gen 71 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Has anyone sold a vehicle on consignment? I am probably selling my camper unfortunately I spoke with camping world they make me a cash offer that was a little low but offered consignment as an option and said they would do it for the price that I'm thinking is low end I was thinking about. Anyone had any experience good or bad? At this time I'm really in no hurry but this seems simpler right now. I can wait until spring to put it up for sale it's not like it has to happen fast. Any opinions would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
71SSclone Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 I sold my camper on consignment back in 2015. For me, it was worth it. I was paying for storage, and when I wanted to sell, I moved it to the consignment place. I ended my storage contract, and could park it at the consignment at no charge. Had it sold within 1 month. Probably could have gotten a little more for it, but at the time I just wanted it gone. I think they charged 10% of the selling price, which was worth it to me. They weeded out all the deadbeats. The buyers ended up parking it near the beach and using it as a vacation home. John 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbolt Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 I think Jared sold a car on consignment. You may want to check with him because if that is the case he has told me it was worth it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 If you can wait until spring to sell because more people are looking so you’ll get a better price and they are not really thinking above winter storage. You’re going to get less this time of year because they generally won’t get used until spring. Unless you get lucky and find someone heading down south for the winter. If you’re not desperate to sell I’d try and sell on your own, you’ll get a better return. But there’s a lot of hassle the eliminated by consignment. Random thoughts by me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re definitely not wrong. It is tough to sell anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searsman Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Sold an 04 convertible mustang about 10 years ago. Worked out good except the dealer kept coming back wanting me to lower the price . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
