| - I have an RV I want to sell and don't have a lot of time, so thought it would be easier to consign. These guys advertise that they are awesome at consignments. I talked to the owner on the phone and he told me about how they consign for 8% of the sales price. This seemed reasonable.
On a side note, their phone system is horrible and runs you around in circles, their website contact forms do not work, and it's actually difficult to get someone on the phone.. and calls are not returned.
Anyway, I drove my RV there because I couldn't get anybody on the phone. When I got there, it was toward end of day and one guy was in the office.. it took me 15 minutes to locate him. he was extremely rude and impatient, and not helpful at all. Additionally, the 8% consignment fee turned into something completely different. In addition to the 8% fee, after the rv sold, they would give me money based on their "wholesale" price not the price the unit sells for-- wtf. So no matter what the rv sells for, I would only get a fraction of the sale price.. so instead of $35k or so that the rv is worth, I would end up with about $17k. That's not consignment, that's no different than if I just sold it to them at a ridiculous lowball price. Additionally, they seem to tack on all kinds of extra fees like storage and such. I feel like their advertising is extremely misleading.
So basically i walked out and won't ever go back. What a colossal waste of my time.
