Folding campers - likely to sell?

10 replies

My parents are looking to sell two folding campers. Both are at least 20/30 years old, but in really good condition for their age. One is a 6-berth Pennine Pullman (bought new so one owner), the other is a 4-berth Conway Challenger (bought from the original owner).

Is there any demand for campers like these today? Any tips on where to sell?

thanks

Definitely! Try eBay or Facebook marketplace

You will sell for the right price. Do a bit of research on fb camper groups etc.

Definitely, these are in really high demand. The Caravan Club do classifieds and I’m sure there are others.

We sold a similar Conway recently it got masses of interest and the first people.to.come.and see it took it.
Don't think they will have any trouble.
We put it on Facebook.

Might get more interest next Spring if they have somewhere to store over the winter- people tend not to buy in Autumn due to winter storage. I bought mine off Gumtree and would look there, FB or ebay for replacement. They might also get a trade in if they are upgrading to a caravan but wouldn't get as much for them.

@blobby10 it’s likely to be summer next year before they sell: will take that long to dig the pennine out of their garage 🙄 and check it over. It’s 1992/1995 so a real antique.

I sold one and it went the same day I advertised it, stick it on Ebay for 99p on an auction

My parents had a Conway folding one back in the 80s because it was cheaper on the ferry and to tow.
