$ Value???

Annemac · 07-14-2007, 09:05 PM

Okay, so this may not be the right place on the forum to ask but I'm asking anyway. If I were thinking of selling my 2006 25' Safari FB Anniversary Edition with Midnight Sun interior with all the bugs ironed out and used for 18 days total...how do I figure out how much to ask for it? I'm not sure how much these things depreciate and I don't know where to look to find out.
So, if anyone out there has some advice, I would sure appreciate it.

Here's the link to NADA's guide. You probably can ask more that what the value computes to.

It sounds like you have an almost new unit that should bring a very good price. If you really want to sell it, you should determine the very best price that you could buy the same new unit. Then come off of that enough to lure a buyer away from buying new and purchasing yours. You can probably figure that amount by asking yourself what it would take for you to buy it.

Hmm...for whatever reason, I can't access the NADA site successfully. I get on there, but there is stuff missing so I can't even enter my info. I even clicked on buy a guide and it wouldn't let me.
I will try again tomorrow!

The site appears to be having issues.....

My exp is that year one expect to loose anywhere between 5% to 10% of price paid, depending on options, etc. These in a way are like cars, the second you take that new car off the dealer lot.......and the major hits each year come every year until about year 4 or 5, where the depreciation slows.

Keep in mind that the model years do not match the calendar year for the most part. Your 2006 is now around two (model) years old.

RV Value -- Buying a Used RV

Airstreams do hold their value better than most RVs. Today we are not really in a sellers market. It's too bad that you couldn't have used it more. No matter how much you get in the end it is going to hurt.

That chart looks pretty darn close to what I've tracked my trailer these past 3 years. I wonder if this chart also goes by model year rather then cal year?
