At this time of year it may take a little longer to sell a camper than in the spring or early summer so I wouldn't get too anxious if it takes a little while to sell.  I would also recommend placing an ad on the Boulder/Denver Craigslist as the market for this type of camper is pretty large in the front range.

Rando,

Thanks for your advice. I see our camper and truck are priced similar to other vehicles for sale. At least no one on Wander the West sends me snide remarks like on CL. I appreciate that a lot!

You need a thick skin on CL, but you can also just ignore all the silliness.    I saw your ad, it looks good and I think your pricing is fair.  There just happen to be  a lot of campers for sale right now at the end of the fair weather camping season.   If it doesn't sell now, and you are not in a hurry to sell, the market definitely seems to heat up in April/May/June at the start of the new season.

Hello, I'm new to the site here. I've been looking somewhat passively for a solid FWC Hawk for the past six months, using Craigslist alerts in a few areas in a circle from my location (Joseph, NE Oregon). This guide is great, thanks to all for the content. After reading it, I'm definitely thinking the Craigslist alerts are not cutting it. Craiglook seemed to be a great way to get a jump on the postings, but as noted in this thread, it has been down for years. A web search of Craiglook, brings up Claz.org, but I can't tell if that is searching all of Craigslist.

What is the latest/recommended Craiglook equivalent, if any?

Any help would be much appreciated! As well as any leads on Hawks for sale (and I'll keep monitoring the Gear Exchange and Used Pop Up Camper Alert fora as well)

Many thanks,

Kyle

Welcome to the cult.

Probably one of the best sources is this site.

Check daily for the "used truck pop up camper alert"thread.

There have been a lot of campers for sale lately but they go very fast.

Good luck in your search.

Frank
