What consignment means here

On consignment, the dealer sells your RV and keeps a cut, and you usually set the asking price together. That arrangement suits anyone who has a unit paid off and time to wait. The five dealers in this directory all list consignment among their services, and four of them will also buy your RV outright. If you need the money this week, ask about a straight purchase first. If you can wait for the right buyer, consignment often nets more. Either way, clear the title before you sign anything, and get the agreement in writing. For shoppers, consignment inventory is worth a look. These are private units parked on a dealer's asphalt, so you get a real walk-through and a service department instead of a stranger's driveway.

Where the dealerships sit

Most of the inventory clusters along the Mississippi and in the eastern half of the state. Camping World runs three Iowa stores, in Cedar Falls, Davenport and Council Bluffs, and the Davenport store carries about 1,900 reviews at 4.5 stars. Bish's RV of Davenport sits in the same market and handles truck campers and teardrops, the only Iowa dealer here listing either. Campers Inn RV of Davenport rounds out the Quad Cities group at 4.2 stars. If you live near the Nebraska line, Council Bluffs saves you a long drive east. From central Iowa, Cedar Falls is the easier run.

How to shop a consignment unit

Consignment RVs belong to somebody else, so the paperwork takes an extra step. Ask the dealer who holds the title and when the owner signed the consignment agreement. Get a pre-purchase inspection from an independent mechanic, not the selling dealer's service bay, even when that bay is good. On the walk-through at delivery, test every appliance, fill the water tank and run the furnace. Line up financing with your own bank before you visit, since four of these five dealers offer financing and it pays to compare. Off-season buying helps too. Fewer shoppers means more time with the unit and a seller more willing to talk.
