Please could you let me know whether there is a guide somewhere as to how much to ask for my caravan. It's a 2 yr old Bailey Ranger 550/5. I will approach my dealer too but just wonder whether anyone knows where I can find out how much I hould be asking.

Many thanks

Thanks. I will do that now - didn't know they had caravans.

What I really need though is a kind of price guide. I don't expect to get what a dealer would get but don't want to make too muck of a loss either.

Cheers

you could try the either the insurance , or technical departments of either the C&CC or CC as there is a Glasses guide for caravans . However in the present climate vans are selling for more than is quoted in the guide

I have been looking at caravans on ebay, to get an idea of prices..............maybe you could check out the prices there, they seem to be attracting high bids at the moment

I've been looking to get a Ranger 550 / 540 this winter, and have been keeping my eye on prices...

My local dealer has two 2007 550 models at £9995 each, and on eBay most private ones that sell seem to be about £8400... but I've noticed loads have not reached their reserve (normally get upto about £7800).

2006 models with the wooden effect bathroom sell for about £7500 on eBay.

I can't wait to get ours... only one more camp under canvas left.

Hope this all makes sense.

Mark.

there isnt really other than

avoid starting price to high

avoid reserve price

and never take paypall as payment (there gonna be collecting so get the cash off them or you may find yourself trying to proove theyve actually collected imagne no caravan and no paypall payment.

i always look at the classified adds aswell there a fixed price and people make an arrangement to veiw and then (like buying a car) they try to make a lower offer you tend to end up selling for a couple of hundred less

ebay auctions work that you pay to list the item pay to add pics pay to jazz it up and then when its sold! you pay a final value fee.
