Pop Up Camper Prices

Doing some research on pop up camper prices before going to the dealer to purchase one has the potential to save a person a good chunk of change. Although pop up campers are on the low end when it comes to camper pricing, there is still plenty of room to negotiate that price down more.

Save money by doing some research before you buy.

A good way to find current pop up camper prices is to see how much people are trying to sell them for on the Web. There are several sites to take a look at.

• RV Trader -- This site lets individuals sell their new or used pop up campers. It’s possible to search by price by clicking on “Price Checker” in any of the listings.
• PopUp Explorer – This site specializes in everything for the pop up camper owner. It has a large classified ads section. People can call or email sellers to try to negotiate pricing.
• WheelByNet – This is another classified site for people looking for pop up campers. Again, each listing has prices on it.

Since many individuals do not know what a good price is for a pop up camper when they go to sell, it’s smart to look at comparable campers on all three sites and possibly more. Then it’s easy to see who is overcharging and who has a seriously competitive price.

Another place to research pop up camper pricing is through the National Automobile Dealers Association which provides an online RV buying guide. This respected source that new and used RV dealers often use lets consumers find pricing on most any pop up camper made between 1975 and the present. To use this site, he or she should do the following:

1. Click on "recreation vehicles" at the top of the page.
2. Under RVs by type, choose "camping trailers".
3. Click on the first letter of the name of the manufacturer of the trailer of interest.
4. Peruse the ones that come up.
5. Click on the model year under the trailer of choice.
6. Click on the exact model name.
7. Check the boxes next to options desired.
8. Click on "get used value" or "get new value" (for recent years only).

The site will show each pop up trailer’s base price and price with options plus a low retail and average retail price. These prices are meant to be selling prices, not prices for trade-ins. A dealer is not going to buy a trailer for the same price as it sells one, as that would not be very profitable. Therefore, those looking for trade-in prices should expect them to be considerably lower.

Probably the best way to find out pop up camper prices is to go to a dealer in person and ask. It’s a good idea to visit more than one dealer, since the prices can vary by location and some dealers may have better promotions than others.

It’s easy to find a dealer to visit by going to PopUp Explorer’s map page. After clicking on the state they live in, people will see a list of pop up camper dealers in their area. Each listing includes the address and phone number of the dealer, its website and email address (if applicable) and a link to customer reviews.

It’s smart to print out some of the pricing information from both NADA and the auction sites to show to a dealer representative. This is especially true if the dealer charges significantly more than the pricing available online. Having proof that there are lower prices offered elsewhere on the exact same product is a good way to gain the upper hand in a negotiation.
