Yesterday I sold my caravan which I did not have advertised on Explore Oz (but I do my camper). It was an interesting experience and the third van I have sold.

If caravans are an indication of the economy, things cannot be that good. I needed to sell it so progressively reduced the price knowing that eventually I would. Over that time I called several similar caravans for sale to ask their results. Most reported that I was the first call that they had recieved.

The retail price of my caravan is $84.500 so I started at $61.000. It has $4000 of extras for I thought this was a good starting price. This was November last year. By the 8th of February, I had reduced the price to $49.900 and still not recieved a single call. Then yesteday a offer of just $45.000.

Knowing that from experience the first offer is usually the best you will ever get, I took it at $47.000. Certainly a buyers market. Interested in hearing recent caravan selling expereinces.
