'Reasonable" prices of Newells are likely best determined by researching all of the Newells that are advertised within your year range and then take a little off for negotiations. Newell carries a large inventory of used Newells but remember that they include in their price a warranty on coaches 7 model years or less old so they will typically be higher priced than individually owned coaches without a warranty.
Even within the same model year, Newells may be significantly different (more or fewer slides, steerable tag or not, etc) and will vary significantly in floor plan, interior materials, drive trains, etc. Newell always uses top quality materials in their coaches both new and in those they remodel. Those variances can make a difference in price but primarily in how popular the layout, etc is at the time and therefore how much interest there is for that coach. More slides cost more money to build so the initial price will be higher but a person that wants a 3 slide rather than a 4 slide used coach may be willing to pay the same amount, or even more, for it.
Some folks have a wild imagination on the value of their coach and have it for sale for YEARS, occasionally lowering the price but always staying well above the current market price. Many of us have looked at coaches that we had trouble believing that the owners are really interested in a sale based on the out of touch price they are asking. There are coaches on the market now that have been listed on various sites for many years. Those are typically either way overpriced or have some issue that is keeping buyers at bay.
