Looking to purchase a 260 RLS
I am looking to purchase a 2017 or 2018 Blackstone 260 RLS or a Blackstone 250 RDS from a private party. Having a hard time locating one.

That particular model (RLS) is popular. Same layout as ours with the rear living area. All the new ones have the kitchen in the back now.
ORV trailers on the used market are hard to find. Persistence! We ended up buying new due to lack of inventory for over a year.

Seems to me that is not an accurate statement. RKS has the rear kitchen.
We'll be heading out in a few weeks to pick ours up, and it better NOT have the kitchen in the rear! We will not be "happy campers".

My bad, I was thinking he was getting the fifth wheel. ORV eliminated the RLS model in that lineup.

You're probably having a hard time finding one, and will continue to have this problem, because ORV owners tend to hang onto their rigs, especially in the first year or two of ownership.
I'm not saying you won't find one, just don't hold your breath.

And don't be afraid of a '15 or '16 either. The older ones hold up very well and folks who buy these tend to improve them rather than beat them up.

Good luck!

My brother is trading in his 2016 Black Stone 260RLS in at Davis RV in Sacramento sometime in the next 2 weeks. Let me know if you want more details.

Found a beautiful 2016 in Calif.
We purchased a great 2016 Blackstone 260 in Simi Valley Cal. Excited to get it ready for a trip.
