Hello All,

I am new to this forum. I am looking at this ebay purchase from a dealer. I am going to do a independent inspection and check it out, but is this a good price for this MH:

On the surface, it looks like you got a bargain, especially based on the NADA data.

Please be sure to have the coach fully checked out, including all systems & chassis, by a qualified, reputable mechanic that is experienced with motorhomes. This will assure you that you have a sound vehicle. Also, be sure to have the VIN researched to be sure the coach was not involved in any accidents or had fire/flood/or other water damage that has been repaired & not visible to the naked or untrained eye.

All that said, congratulations on your new Southwind!

In today's market I wouldn't pay too much attention to NADA or Kelley Blue Book. Things are changing too fast and for the lower side.
The largest dealer in this area is having a sale that closes today. 75 RV's are going to the highest bidder.
Good Luck,
Jerry

If the coach is as good as it looks.....you got a good deal.......32V is a great motorhome, I speak from experience, I own one. Supposedly is the most sought after floor plan of any gas model.

The only person using NADA or KBB in our area is the tax adjuster.
