All the ones I have been involved with (my own to sell or assisting on a sale) I strongly recommended cash or check trading hands and taking cash at the bank its drawn on from purchaser. I dealt with more than a few, managing a KOA for 6 years.

I recommend you be very careful on checks or anything like that. Post it on craigs list and you will have quite a few offers very quickly, all which will want to mail you check and have their driver pick it up. You can deposit the check prior to turn over but it will probably be gone long before check is verified as bogus. Check may be 10-15% over your asking price too.

Deal in person, green paper in your hand before turning over. If they offer silver or gold, take it to a proper assayers office.

What is your sale price. If its over about $5k you will have likely have little response on craigslist. If its in that price range, put it on CL and it should be gone in 3-4 days.

You will also likely get a call from a service that will list it in umpteen places and get it gone quick. They will ask for description and probably appraise/price it $2-3K above your desire. I never dealt with them. They do not work on commission and want $2-300 up front. I suggest if you do not bother with that.

If you do craigslist and its reasonably do-able for you, set the meet up to view at a local mall or such and go with a friend or 2, all OCing.

Not true. It's about it being priced right. Priced too high will get you that, at any range. Too low your email will be blowing up, for 500 or 20k.

Based on my experience we will have to agree to disagree.

I am talking used campers rather than used cars. I can see a definite difference and the reason for it with that difference.
