Hey fellas/gals a friend of mine who is an RV dealer got in contact with me this morning for a possible opportunity for my wife and i. One of his customers came in and purchased a new camper and on trade my friend took their 276 Triple E topaz with slide. Its so early in the game we havent of course had a chance to look at it, althuogh he did say it was loaded, had the full winter package, slide etc. I know from experience how seriously well made these campers are as my parents owned a 2001 for many years. So this is a rare opportunity as most people just keep their topaz's. Do any of you guys have an idea as to what this topaz could be worth? Our conquest is a 2004, so this whole deal will depend on the trade in difference. Unfortunately he wont know until monday some final figures so i thought i would maybe ask for your guys experience. Also were in canada.

Although not a Topaz, I loved my 2002 Triple E Senator 28XL (Class C). It was well made, and I was impressed with what I found behind things when doing manitenance or modifications. The company was helpful answering questions and providing information.

We have a 1999 triple E topaz F260 RK and we are asking $9995. See it on Kijiji.
Ours has no slides we are looking for a new unit with at least two slides. Nice thing about ours its 27 ft. and I can still pull my boat behind it without exceeding max overall lenght!

yes that is definatly one of the deciding factors for us, we have to stay at or slightly under 30' to be legal length as we also haul our boat which is 23' including the trailer. Prairie camper i am in brandon, good to see a fellow manitoban!. My parents told me to expect around 15,900 give or take, of course depending on condition. Is this unrealistic? Being our camper is a 2004, i dont imagine it should be hard to get a reasonable price difference on trade in.

Triple is is a quality brand but like anything used, its condition will relect the value. Spend a lot of time looking for signs of leaks as that will be a tell tale sign of how it was cared for.

I have an 06, I have really cared for it and could almost pass it off as new. The construction quality is good and I haven't had problems with mine. And your right, Topaz owners hold on to them because they are such a well built RV. I plan on keeping mine until I don't need a bunk model.

yes were quite looking forward to look at it, i guess were hoping that its in great condition. One positive it being from a dealer that itll be getting the once through and also have a bit of warrenty. As it sits right now provided the topaz in good condition, were hoping the difference in trade in will be around $3000 or less. Hard to say what theyll come back with though. My wife and i figure our 2004 conquest should be worth 13 to $14,000. When we took it in for a pre season the other dealer told us if it was on his lot he wouldnt let it go for any less than 16,000$. tough to say what will happen!

Another Triple E Topaz owner here, we are on our 2nd bunk model, bought the second one site unseen, we have a 301rbxl would only sell it to get the 324 bunk model. If it is in clean condition I don't think you could go wrong. Good luck
