Depends how much you need the $$$$
If you are selling cause you NEED the $$$... take it. Its a good kombi but people just aint shelling out.
If you are selling for topping up the bank account i would hold out

look, eventually you will get what it's worth. people are paying lots for thrashed campers. if you have to put it into storage while you go OS then
do so, but don't sell it to a butcher, you'll never forgive yourself and you'll be throwing away good money. Besides, then when you get home, you
can cruise in style straight away.

Hold out. It took me over 9 months to sell my Cabriolet. Painful, I know - but your Kombi is worth more than $5k.

If you will sell for $5K to strip does that mean you would sell for $5 K not to strip?
Ihave a mate that i recon i could talk into it, he has $5K budget tops.
I realise this is a beautiful bus and a bargin at that price but better driven than stripped.
Let me know and ill work on him

for my part i think it would be a shame to sell to someone who planned to strip it, but i also understand you are keen to sell. i dont really
understand why she hasnt sold as someone else said rugged poptops seem to go for at least 3k. with the little i know about kombis and only from the
pictures ive seen yours is worth much more than that. in short i reckon hold off if you can dont sell to butcher, i reckon wild1 will buy it.rob. |
