Purchasing a camper van

If you are looking to buy a camper van and you don’t have such a big budget at hand, you surely thought about purchasing a used camper.

There are tons of private sellers out that that offer camper vans of all kinds in great condition.

However, before you choose a camper, you will need some help to decide whether the price that you are asked to pay is really worth it.

If you don’t want to get ripped off, you need to know the actual value of the camper before you pay for it.

It happens often that both the private seller and the buyer don’t know the market well enough to be able to find a suitable and fair price for both parties. It is even more difficult to find the price of a camper van than a car, because there are more factors that you have to consider. This is also a reason why a lot of people can be easily mislead when purchasing a camper van.

Visitor's story

If you decide you want to purchase a van camper, take a look at the Kelly Blue Book camper van retail value before making any kind of decision.

This book gives the make, model and size along with other information. The retail price for a van camper results from the year, size, condition and mileage.

If you find a fully loaded camper van, you will most likely pay more than you would for a camper van with less luxury. If you happen to find a 1997 camper van from West Virginia or a 1998 camper van from Washington the retail price will reflect the camper van only, not the location.

Some vans come with just the standard accessories, the more the accessories the more you may have to pay for the camper. If you have a pop up trailer to trade in on a camper van, you need to compare the retail values before finalizing any deal.

The idea of using the blue book to purchase and sell a camper van makes good sense. Not only can you find out what to sell the camper for, but it also helps you decide what camper has the right price.

When you look over the camper, you can make a notation as to what the camper has for accessories, miles, the engine size and the transmission type in order to find the right retail value when looking in the Blue Book.
