The same coach is listed on another site for $119,000. It is a Coachman and they probably have to list a cell number on ebay as it is listed below dealer cost and their agreement with Coachman comes into play?!!

Look here and you will see the same coach!

They also have a Coachman 383fws Cross Country for sale. Looks like they are a Coachman dealer. 32% may sound like a good deal but unfortunately in a deflationary market no telling where the low will go.

Most RV manufacturers Franchise agreements state that a Dealer cannot advertise a current year model below MSRP. So, this dealer has blacked out all manufacturer markings to get around the agreement. If it is indeed a Coachmen or ANY brand still in business, it would be a good deal. I would make sure that when you pick it up, you spend at least 2 days going thru the unit to verify all items are 100% and there are no missing items or damage (exterior and interior). Then and only then give them the balance after they have addressed all defects. Doug

I think in this market that is a fair dealer they are offering for a DP. I do think you could get them down even more than 32%.

yes, there are more than a few Coachmen DP's out there . also higher end Encores. We came within a hair of buying one a few weeks ago. Here is another example, but higher end model. I'm sure the price is better than listed.

End of year '07 Coachmen DP's were selling for $99,900 not that long ago -- at least a half dozen of them, brand new, on rvsearch.com. A Texas dealer has a new '08 at 102K right now.
