We are looking to buy a MH between now and 2yrs. I came across this on Ebay and thought I would place a bid. I never thought I would win for that price Is this a good deal or maybe a scam. How do I know its not a scam without going there. If it isnt a scam what do you think about the price?

Hi,
There are no details about the ebay listing, so no one can have an opinion on it.

i don't see a link to your eBay item so can't comment on it. but why would you bid an RV that you hadn't seen and examined in person. you should've realized that there was at least the possibility that you'd win the auction. the time to wonder if it was a scam was before you bid. hope it works out for you.

NADA lists the average retail price of an '04 40' Vectra in the high $90K's, so depending on condition, the $70K auction price is likely a fair deal.

Did you buy it sight unseen?
If so, wow! Way too many things could be wrong that could cost big money.
If it sounds too good to be true....

assuming it checks out mechanically...chassis, coach, appliances and so on, can be licensed in the states, doesn't have a roof that leaks, has no horrible smells inside, the seller actually has title... you get the idea. i think you're nuts to send this guy one red cent until and unless you've inspected the MH, hired qualified chassis and coach mechanics to do a thorough inspection of the RV and taken it for a test drive. assuming all of that passes muster then i would insist that the sale take place at a reputable bank where the title can be examined to be sure it is not a fake.
i buy from eBay all the time but there's no way i'd spend that kind of money sight unseen.
hope it works out for you.

It's sold, so it is a moot point.
