I would never consign to an outfit that also sells new RVs (dealership). They will push new first and maybe show yours at times. Also, be sure you hold the title, don't give it to the consignment lot, just a warning.

Jut make sure that you fully understand what you will pay for and what Camping World will pay for. Read the documents you sign thoroughly before you sign. If you don't understand something, get a third party to explain it to you. Also, you should know that your insurance probably will not cover any losses you incur while your unit is consigned. Check with your insurance agent.

We are looking at selling our 5th wheel and moving to a class A, was thinking of putting with Camping World on consignment, was wondering the good, bad and ugly of doing so. Any stories?

Have seen the video, read the experiences of people re: insurance while on the lot
Still have to accept the fact, they have the traffic! Looking for personal experience, not antidotes.
:h
Thats a plain silly excuse.
Just because CW may have "traffic" it doesn't mean that their sales people are going to push or show YOUR rig. They are in the business to sell NEW units which they will get bigger commission on.

They would be 5 hours north of me, not exactly convenient. Not sure where you got your numbers, but my dealer/friend looked it up and said NADA was 41,300, whse @ 28,500. I was expecting 40,000. Before you ask, he only handles small bumper pull trailers not 5'vers. Said he does not have the customer for a 40' 5. He did however handle the sale of my last to TT's as I moved up.
You have a 4yr old USED 40ft 5ver, pretty small market for such a large rig and the 5th hitch will limit your market even more.
NADA values are worthless since they tend to be over inflated and do not take into account current market conditions.
Your rig is only worth what a BUYER is willing to pay, sorry but that is how it goes with things like RVs.
Realistically, even selling it yourself you are going to be hard pressed to get near the Wholesale value of $28,500 and that is most likely going to take a long time..
Your going to have to price it to sell, not many people have $40K in cash in their back pockets for a used 4 yr old RV TRAILER so they WILL most likely have to take a loan.. I think convincing a bank to loan $40K for something valued closer to $28K is going to be a stretch.
Personally, since you are planning to buy a Class A, perhaps it might be in your best interests to use your 5vr as a trade in..
Yes, it will sting but you will be from under it quickly..
RVs are a depreciating "asset" and buying, selling, trading often WILL cost you dearly for those changes..
