I bought my Newell directly from the owner/seller, which is my preference. While I would buy a good coach at a fair price from either an individual or a dealer, my thought is an individual "should" know it's coach history and operation much better than a dealer. My experience showed dealers knew very little of the coaches history, operation, repairs that were needed, recent repairs/replacements, etc.

With that said, it is painfully difficult for a buyer to find all of the Newell, Prevost, etc for sale at any given time. I'm in the market currently for a newer Newell and I search the net everyday. It's an extremely fragmented market, and online listings are scattered. As a potential buyer, I'm shocked there isn't one major online marketplace that all sellers would list their coach. It sure would make it easier for buyers!

My opinion only....
If you sell it yourself, post ads on every site you can, including creating your own mini-site. The FIRST place people go is Google searches. Put up lots of high quality pictures, pictures, and pictures. The more the better. Post on all forums and update your post. Encourage potential buyers to contact you. Most ads don't. Be honest about what has been done recently to your coach. Dialogue and honest communication lead to sales. Lastly, it takes time for the right buyer to be in the market place for your exact coach at any given price.
