We have just sold ours. We used eBay classifieds, Autotrader, FB Marketplace and this site. eBay was by far the best and all our serious responses came from there and we eventually sold through eBay. Don't waste your time with Autotrader, we had one response. It is possibly the worst website I've come across for submitting a detailed advert as its very difficult to cut/past information in. FaceBook Market place had one response. I had and enquiry from a very reputable dealer on this site who offered a very good deal. I placed the adds on a Monday and it was gone, as in collected, by the following Wednesday. eBay only allows you 10 images. We had 125 images. We used Dropbox to upload the remaining 115 images and sent the link to...
We used Motorhome Depot and found the whole process completely painless. They deal with filtering out the dross and arranging, and conducting, viewings with credible buyers. They were able to have viewings when we were away for a few days, and, in fact, it was one of those viewings that resulted in the sale.

They advertise on their own website as well as the other usual channels.

For us, it was well worth the fee.

I’ve always used EBay myself and would not trust facebooks marketplace at all.

Just do your research and be vigilant trust me, people will always try to pull the wool over your eyes.

Good luck.

Why not advertise it here on the forum.

We used Dropbox to upload the remaining 115 images and sent the link to serious enquires. I think that payed off as the guy who bought it lived 5 hours away. He said that the images convinced him that it was the van he wanted. I did consider Motorhome Depot, however, I would have been 'tied in' for 3 months I think.

Thanks for the prompt about the duplicateish post. It didn't seem to have sent first time so I sent another just in case. I'm a proper technophobe I'm afraid 🙄
