Hello All,

Hope your all well.  

Im thinking of selling my Van and seeking some advice

What sites to use to sell it? 

How do I know the value

Van is a 2007 Sprite Major 6 in excellent condition upto date services will come with all accessories, awning and Major Power Mover

Is the market for selling in good condition at the moment?

Thanks in advance to any responses.

We chased loads of advertised vans for my son a few weeks ago. We really had to be quick off the mark to get there first so there was a great demand then and I know dealers were short of stock on good used vans.However we were in the £2000 - £2500 range. Sadly a very high percentage of those seen were damp .I think Caravan Club membership soared last year .I am sure you will sell it very easily even now.

Just noticed you live in Alfreton - most of the vans we chased were in the Ad mag so its a good outlet where vans sell quickly and its free to advertise.You can place the ad on line.Good luck.

If you're a C.C. member you can get a written value for a private sale of your caravan from Glasses Guide for about £10.

Very useful because you can show it to prospective buyers to show you're not ripping them off. My father-in-law did it several years ago and found it very useful.

He sold it for the asking price.

We sold our last one on Ebay, it sold in about 5 hours after putting it on there. We went to our local dealers, asked the salesman what it was worth & what we should ask for it, he showed us a similar model there & we compared its spec to ours, decided on a price, listed it on an auction with a buy it now price & it sold.

The only mistake I made was accepting the mans deposit before agreeing a collection date with him. He left it here for three weeks because he had to wait until his "sold" caravan had been paid for & collected. I began to worry because I'd issed several chances to sell it for cash but felt I had to wait for him having taken his deposit.

As it happened, everything went through as he'd said it would, he accepted my terms of keeping HIS caravan on my drive at HIS risk, turned up on the day, paid me in cash & towed it away.

There's a strong demand for good used vans, Eby is good as long as you're accurate with your description & not greedy on the price. Best of luck.
