Photo Tips
- HORIZONTAL ASPECT RATIO ARE PREFERRED (pictures that are wider than they are tall).
- Vertical pictures may in distortion. Please make sure to select the direction you would like to rotate the picture (if needed).
- Make sure that there is sufficient lighting inside the RV for inside photos.
- Only take pictures during the day, even for pictures of the inside of the RV.
- Minimize any background distractions, such as other vehicles, houses, etc.
- Provide a detailed description of your RV, and include all information that you think a buyer would want to know. After completing your listing, try to look at it as a disinterested buyer might -- does it answer all of the questions that a buyer may want to know?
- Price your RV at market price if you want to sell quickly. Over-pricing does not work - it stops buyers that might otherwise be interested from contacting the seller.
