Due to health issues we are going to have to sell our Born Free. I am wondering where the best place would be to advertise? Obviously I will place an ad. on this web site but where else would you suggest that will give me the minimum of scammers? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Re: advice on sale
My experience with Craigslist was terrible. I listed a car for sale and all I got were scammers or lowball offers. One offered to buy my car at my asking price site unseen if I provided my banking info. He had a convincing story to string me along. I guess there are some people he can fool in spite of the obvious. I did not sell my car after a couple of weeks so I took down my add. I suppose that a legitimate buyer might have eventually responded.

Re: advice on sale
I have never used them but options might be RVTRADERS.com, RVUSA.com and RVT.com. I was watching those site when I was trying to buy my BF.
Re: advice on sale
Also you might ask around for a RV Dealer consignment lot in your area.
Might be worth to pay a few extra bucks to have someone else do all the work.
If I was going to sell my BF, I would check on this option first and the costs.
Anybody have any idea how much a typical consignment lot will charge?

Re: advice on sale
IT might be easier to consign it at Motorhomes of Texas. I have sold two coaches thru them. they used to be a BF dealer for a few months and I ordered mine thru them. FYI Foretravel factory is across the street and there are a number of RV dealers in the town of Nacogdoches. They sell lots of coaches a month.

Re: advice on sale
Thank you for the suggestions. Consignment dealers tend to charge a lot so I will go to RV Traders first and check what Motorhomes (Texas) might charge.
Thanks again.
