Looking at buying an older used travel trailer opinions wanted

[Rick1971]

I have a question, I'm looking at a travel trailer I'm not sure if this is worth it at this price I would go and take a look at it and visually inspect it obviously but it has a restroom an AC and a bad those are the things that I guess are important to me, but of course I don't want something that is falling apart so I will go take a look at it and make sure everything is in working order and it is visually appealing but do you guys think it is worth the money?

The lady is asking $1600 and it has a clear title.

$1600 seems like an outrageously good deal for it. But if it smells like piss or mold, run away as fast as you can!

Good to know. this will be the first time I bought anything like a travel trailer so I thought I start off with something inexpensive to see if I liked it first.

I've seen that same trailer posted for sale everywhere from Califonia to Florida. But, if you find a legit one of those for that price, they're great little trailers, but expect to pay a lot more.

How much would you say a 2001 in good condition would be worth?

They vary wildly, but 7500 - 10k depending on model trim etc.

Also look at Scamp Trailers. They are a very similar design.

OP, be very careful when dealing with ads such as this one. I took a quick look on Facebook marketplace and this same camper is listed at least three times for $1600, in three different locations. Two different locations in Tennessee and one in Georgia. IMHO this is probably a scam. As the old saying goes “if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true”.

Make sure where ever you go you have these stores close, ACE HARDWARE, HOME DEPOT, LOWE'S, AND SOME CAMPER SALES CENTER WITH A SERVICE/PARTS
DEPT.

I promise you, that's a scam.
