Hi Joy and list,
I really appreciate this type information. I'm currently searching for a
first (and possibly last) A/S or Argosy. So far, the prices I've seen have
ranged around 3500 to 7000. In my opinion, some folks have an unrealistic
idea of what their units are worth (because of the potential investment the
buyer would then have to make to get them in livable condition). One person
I spoke with kept emphasizing the price of new Airstreams.
I'm in no hurry, and I'm willing to be patient to find the right trailer. I
have learned a lot lurking on this list, and I value the information from
all of you.
