Right price for a used bird

[Wallace Craig]

As silly as it may sound, the right price is what you are willing to pay and
what the seller is willing to accept; as with most things in life, it is a
matter of negotiation. Don't spend too much time wondering about the right
price; make a low ball good faith offer and see what happens.

Does anyone have an idea what the correct asking price should be for a
used 80 to 83 FC35 in average/decent mechanical condition??? Have been
looking around on the internet and seen many for sale all over the
country with asking prices that vary by as much as $25,000. It is all
very confusing for a 1st time buyer. Any help in this regard would be
greatly appreciated. I am looking for a good running unit that may
need a little cosmetic fix up or interior work. Thanks.



I have a copy of the NADA (Older Recreation Vehicle Appraisal Guide)
that is dated Sept thru Dec 2004 that has the below info. These are
approximate values since upgrades and maintenance done on these coach
can greatly impact true values.

I have tried to copy the value data from the Yellow NADA Appraisal
Guide accurately but I make no promise as to the accuracy of my
effort. I was surprised to see a 83 M33PT but I decided to post data
exactly as written.
