I would really be worried if they accept your bid. Something ain't right.

If the SC Camping World dealer is on 544 in MB, they will never fix the items you requested. Reputation precedes them.
I am from the MB area and would gladly look at the unit for you but will be on the road for the next 3 months.

Do yourself a favor and look for another unit, there are many out there that would be a better long range deal.

The dealer is in Spartanburg. It was at a dealer in MB then went to Charleston for a while. Then the unit went to Spartanburg.

I suspect there are other issues.

I live in Virginia and there is no Camping World near me. The closest is 5 hours away.

After three years, my generator has logged about 125 hours. 300 hours on a new unit would certainly require some explanation.

As others have said, leave this deal and dealer quickly. With the condition of the coach that can be seen, you could only guess at what can't be seen. The old saying, "Ten miles of bad road" would certainly be applicable here, only it would probably be much more than ten miles!

It's easy, used coach, used price. I don't know what all the running away is about. It's a used coach. Good cleaning will most likely make a nice rig of it. You lost me with the pollan on the elec conections! Sounds like you want the coach, low ball and walk away.... they will either take it or not. One way of the other you will both be happy...Happy Trails...

Used unit at a used price. You are the only one that has to be satisfied and happy with the deal. If you are satisfied with the price give them a punch list of things that need attention and do not sign the papers until they have been completed.

13 items on the "list" are just cleaning...
17 are PDI stuff...

Not unusual at all IMO

Where in Virginia do you live? There are Camping Worlds in Roanoke and in Winchester.

I live in Yorktown, VA so I am still fairly far from a Camping World The one in Winchester is fairly close to the one in Roanoke -

I agree - I did give them a punch list now the dealer dropped the price by $2000 and asked me to come up for 24% down so I could get he payment down. Well if I am putting 1/4 of the cost down I certainly don't want a payment for 20 years. I am going to just let it sit until I decide what if anything I want to do. I still think it is a bit much for a unit that has been sitting - I also asked for more stuff. Now it is just a game to play to keep me occupied until I get bored with it. I have already gotten over this one and will move on. I guess the unprofessional nature of the sales rep is what got to me. I think people should have a professional manner when selling or representing a product. I do and I guess I expect as much.

Have a great week

Thank you all for your replys

Maybe we got lucky with our A.
We stumbled on one on the lot in basically the same description.
Its an 08 with 2400 miles and never registered.
Dealer stated and provided proof, it came from a dealer that had gone bankrupt.
Bed still had the plastic on it as did the sofa bed..
We looked at others on the lot but still liked this one.
Everything else was still wrapped as from the factory and had the "new rig" smell
Got a good deal on it.
My avatar is one of the pics of it.
Good luck with your search.

maccorgi-
Cureous of the status of the offer you made to them? Have they responded?

maccorgi · 06-19-2010, 01:28 PM

They turned it down but the RV is really clean now and it is fixed except the slides still do not have the sealing/weather stripping around the slides are still not repaired. They would not budge off the price at all. So as far as I am concerned it can sit for a while longer.

Thanks for asking.

I have a 2009 that is the same price it is a Platinum Edition Damon Challenger - really in beautiful shape and the insides are so much nicer - none of the issues - same price it was reduced recently to the same - it was 149K MSRP down to 112K. Fireplace, sliding doors to close off the frount from the back. same layout except for that. Does not have the side cameras but I think I can do with out those. There is no rust on the frame. Never titled or used by the staff as well.

Think I am going to get this one. I wanted a diesel but think it is out of range for me.

Thanks for asking.
