Hi brookes, We looked at quite a few on caravanCampingsales.com.au before deciding to go new. It's the equivalent of carsales.com.au. Can't say how successful it is, but some of them seemed to move quickly if priced well.

I recently sold our jayco camper on Gumtree,I had never heard of it before and it was FREE. I had already paid for my Tradingpost advertisment so I just copied it onto Gumtree (sold in 3 days) I got heaps of calls from the gumtree advertisment and only one from trading post.
I dont know how they survive with doing free advertising??
I looked at what other people were selling for and priced mine in the middle.

Sold our 16' on trading post, took a while to sell but it was winter. After 30 days (I think) add is free so it didn't cost us in the end!

Cheers.

I used Trading Post and RV Point ( now caravanCampingsales.com.au ) when we sold our Eagle a while back, sold in 4 days just lucky I guess, Our Swan was traded on the Expanda.

Trading post got the best results with our old 16:49-3 wasn't fast but then I was asking top dollar. eBay just brought out all the cheapskates.

I sold mine on Gumtree. Free and you can add pics etc. Have had great success recently selling a range of items including a car, treadmill, colorbond and senior citizen chair!!! Most sold the same day.

I put my swan on Gumtree on a Friday afternoon, first email response in 4 hours, second person ( the person who bought it ) called Sunday got another call Monday and then pulled the add.Paid a few $ to have the add appear at the top of the page for a week.
