Talking with the owner ......

He wants at least 730 ...... he is not going to let it go for cheaper, I offered him 595 and to pull it off ebay so I could go and take it :( It is hard sided too, loved it ! oh well ....

Keeping fingers crossed.... good luck!

He has your information and can contact you after the sale if it doesn't go anywhere.  Keep an eye on it and put your bid in when you feel the time is right.  I bought our popup off of ebay.  I wasn't the high bidder, but the high bidder didn't buy it, so the guy emailed me and we closed the deal for a price I wanted.  Good luck.


I also wonder how much that thing weighs.  It looks pretty heavy.

Hmmmm, Lexington, NC isn't all that far away from me so when you come to get the camper I will drive over to meet you. :theking:

I put a bid and asked him to end the auction. he says in his description "I will end the auction early for honest and qualified bidders". So I asked him to end the auction. We will see, If the rest is in bad condition I will just fix it up. It has an AC, new fridge and hard sided for 600 bucks I can not pass this ! Cross your fingers.

birol

Arrrgghghhh, he is not going to end it early, he wants 730 :(:(:(

Oh well, I will just keep dreaming on ..... I hope no one bids on it !!! :compumad:  :mad:

Birol, I thought you had trouble getting a camper across the border into Canada.  Has that issue been resolved that you could even consider this camper?  It does certainly look nice and worth the effort!  Good luck!

birol

Lee's camper was modified and was younger than 15 years. So it had to be fully inspected, recertified. WHen a camper is older than 15 years, all I have to dpo is just get license plates after a speededup import (formality) process.  yeah it will cost like 200 bucks still but no risk of being refused to be imported, there was that risk with Lee's.

Way cool!  I wish you the best of luck in getting that camper!  Even if you lose to a higher bidder, that sale might fall through and they might come knocking on your door.  I think everyone here will keep their fingers crossed for you.

Thanks I am hoping I will get this one, it loks nice and neat.

Someone has a $605 bid on it, and is shown as ending the bidding early! You sure someone didn't out manuever you on this one???

jpreiser

Hope you find one soon!!

It is gone :( I guess someone offered him the 730 off ebay as he wanted :( Off I go to do my papers .....


He sold it for a lot more locally, plus an electric guitar setup for his daughter, arrrggghhhh ! I wish I had the extra 150 bucks and had offered it :(


I had my hopes high there for a while, Yesterday night I was day dreaming about  how I would pick it up, maybe take DD with me, and drive down listening to our favorite songs and making a short vacation of it.


Time to move on .........
