Default Selling Transit 350 HD XLT

I have listed my van on several sites but not getting much traffic.
I'm a builder of aircraft, cars, and now an RV van. this van is fully equipt and reasonably priced. I'm not a social media person.
Any suggestions to get more visibility?

What sites have you tried? Do you have a link to one of your listings?

Presentation (quality of pictures and text), price, and other factors may affect ad response in addition to listing site(s). Need more information to provide helpful guidance.

You may find some of the suggestions in this recent thread helpful.

I track ads on RVTrader.com for units similar to mine (just to keep up with the market). I've noticed an increase in the number of units for sale and a softening of prices recently. It appears the diminishing severity of the pandemic along with the rise in gas prices is cooling down the overheated RV market. You can expect yours to take longer to sell.

Thanks

Nice looking van, great layout, well thought out components, excellent presentation, and I'd say a fair price. Maybe list a couple more places (noticed you listed here). RVTrader.com, maybe, to cast a wider net, or wade into Craigslist.

I listed mine on CL at one point and later decided to keep it. It wasn't too bad- got several serious nibbles and a few dealer lowball offers. Not as much spam/scam nonsense as I was led to expect.

Give it time. Best wishes with the sale. Someone is going to get a very nice unit.

I would suggest more sites to list like Rvtrader and Craigslist. Both sites generated sales leads for my last two vans. The VW sold in 24 hours on Craigslist (Oct 2019) and the PW took about 3 weeks (Jan 2021) with people coming from Rvtrader and Craigslist but the buyer ultimately came from Craigslist. I bought the vans off Craigslist and RVtrader.

Looks like it is a fair price and it will sell fairly quickly I believe. I had never heard of the two sites you initialy listed on and until your ad mentioned them here I had never seen them. Your ads have all the info anyone should need to generate interest.

Nice looking van, good luck with the sale.

Nice van! You will ultimately
have no trouble. One more month of Spring Break is to your advantage.

Besides the usual places like Craigslist, RVTrader and eBay, try the Expedition Portal:
