Perhaps it's the lower price point ones that are selling?
We put the pennine fiesta on gumtree last month and it sold within the hour, again sub £500.
It does seem to be the case, of what I've seen on eBay anyway. As per my earlier post in this thread, our 2002 Conway Classic Trio hadn't sold after two listings on eBay, and that was with what I felt was a sensible starting price (£750) and a raft of pictures and extremely detailed description. Glad to say that it sold third time around, albeit with only one bid for the starting price.
The person hadnt even viewed it beforehand, but had had TTs in the past so when he came he didn't even want to see it opened up. I had the cover off, folded awnings etc. lifted off and he saw the cabin canvas and could see that it was in good condition and despite me asking him he was happy not to see it opened up. Pretty sure the detailed pics and description helped, and he could see that the reason stated for selling, now having a FC, was genuine as it was parked up alongside the TT.

Another thing. Is it just me or ar a lot of people selling camper overly inflating their prices
Definitely. There were several Classic Trios being listed, and relisted, at the same time as ours with starting bids of £1000, or BIN of £1000, which simply weren't selling. Another one that had a more sensible starting bid of £700 had a poor description so no wonder people weren't bidding on it. Same with one that had a £1000 starting bid, had one photo I think and about five brief sentences in the description!
I don't know if it's the time of year, i.e. still a bit early in the year, but the higher value TTs don't seem to be shifting so quickly.
