No old campers on e-Bay? Scamps Casitas

Hi folks, I've been out of the forum action awhile but I've recently decided to check on selling my 1972 Eco (Scamp like) and a 1967 Utopia (non-fiberglass). I went looking on e-bay for current trends and was surprised to find there were no old campers on e-bay. Or new small fiberglass camper trailers at all.

Have they become so rare that people stopped selling them or are they doing it someplace other than e-bay?

Thanks,

For your all-molded, I think you'd find it you post it here in the For Sale forums and over at Molded Fiberglass Travel Trailers For Sale | Fiberglass RV's For Sale, you'd end up with plenty of people looking to buy.

No one is listing anything right now because the spring sales season is just a couple of weeks away. In March the market picks up as do the prices. People are calendar oriented

A Uhaul just got put on, but it's modified, and not so well in my opinion. But that's only my opinion, others may like it

One reason might be the fees ebay charges, versus no fees to list on sites like this one or on Craigslist.

If you're wanting to get a sense of prices, I'd say Molded Fiberglass Travel Trailers For Sale | Fiberglass RV's For Sale has the best information for your molded trailer. They harvest ads from Craigslist and eBay, as well as take direct listings, and their software filters out scams. Listings are preserved in the archive section after they are sold, along with any pictures that went with the ad to help assess how yours compares.

Not sure about your other trailer.

Best wishes!
