Can you list your RV for sale on this forum?

Did you try listing on craigslist.org ?
If you haven't I would suggest trying it.
For RVs it is a free listing, easy to setup an account and they give you something like 20 pictures you can load for the add.
Go to craigslist.org, search for a city listed closest to you and post your add on that listing..
Big items like RVs really are best sold locally, it is very difficult for both parties to work remotely on looking and buying long distance and myself, I would never want to try buying a RV sight unseen..
If you have been posting on CR and not getting a bite, fair chance you are pricing it way to high.. Folks think their rigs are made of gold, they aren't and right now folks are listing them for 50% higher than the actual market value.. In my area, none of the high and overpriced RVs are moving, the listings have been the same rigs for months..
Just finishing up a deal today for my Father In Law involving a park model (going to tow it home today for my Father In Law), the poster was asking better than 60% higher than what NADA guide stated.. Bought it for NADA average price after haggling and I feel that is still higher than what it should have been..
Funny thing was the seller had tried ebay, wanted me to bid on it without looking at it, told him I don't do that as there are too many shill bidders and non paying bidders.. Told him to contact me when the deal falls through.. Yep, he contacted me when it fell through..
Be realistic in pricing and don't add additional war and flu tax on it in hopes of scoring a retirement bonus..

Sold ours on facebook Marketplace in 2 days after listing it. Nice thing about Marketplace is you can limit the advertised area to what ever radius you want to keep it relatively local, making it easy to show potential buyers and easy to meet them at their bank to get a bank issued check for payment, removing any concern about that.

I paid 5.00 for a listing on Craigslist. It is a new fee for vehicles.
I sold my trailer on the second day. It was a good sale.

Lol. Are you insinuating there is a way of “blocking” those users who are not “local?”
Not sure your train of thought here….but there’s a lot of things that don’t make sense to me…especially on this forum.
But whatever floats your boat. Just know you can’t limit who sees the add based on their location from which they use Craigslist.
What you meant to say is if you’re searching, you can limit the radius around a central location (any location) that you see.
“Sorry sir/ma’am but you live to far away from me to buy my RV. Yer money ain’t no good in these here parts…”. Hahahaha
