Bergeson Rv
Family-owned Kalispell RV dealer with new and used units, parts, and consignment, rated 4.6 by 65 reviewers.
Kalispell has two RV consignment dealers, and they are not the same animal. One is a big-volume store with hundreds of reviews and a full service department. The other is a smaller dealer with a loyal following and a 4.6 rating. If you are selling rather than buying, consignment means the dealer handles the listing and the walk-throughs while you keep the title until it moves.
Family-owned Kalispell RV dealer with new and used units, parts, and consignment, rated 4.6 by 65 reviewers.
Kalispell RV dealer selling new and used motorhomes, travel trailers and more, with service, parts and propane on site.
Bish's RV of Kalispell carries the volume and the inventory range: new and used, motorhomes, travel trailers, camper vans, toy haulers, truck campers, teardrops, pop-ups and Class A coaches, plus consignment and outright buying. Around 920 reviews put it at 4.4. Bergeson RV sits at 4.6 across 65 reviews and handles new, used and consignment with parts and trade-in on site. Read the low-star reviews on both before you drive out, and ask what a consignment seller pays in commission and how long the agreement runs.
A consigned RV belongs to a private seller, not the dealership, so the paperwork and the negotiation work a little differently. Ask who holds the title and whether any lien has to be cleared before the sale closes. Get a pre-purchase inspection from an inspector you hire, not one the dealership recommends. At delivery, do the walk-through with every system running: water pump, furnace, fridge on both propane and electric, slides, awning, and the roof. Financing on a consigned unit can be tighter than on dealer stock, so get pre-approved at your own bank or credit union first.
Consignment makes sense when you want the dealership to show the RV, handle tire-kickers and manage the paperwork while you avoid a private sale. Before you sign, confirm the commission, the listing term, who pays for storage while it sits, and what happens if it does not sell. Clean it thoroughly and fix small faults first; a working water heater and a fresh seal around the vents sell a used trailer faster than a price cut. Off-season is a reasonable time to list, since serious buyers are still shopping and the dealership has more time to work your unit.
There are 2 RV consignment dealers in Kalispell. Both also sell used RVs, and one buys units outright as well as taking them on consignment. With only two, it pays to call ahead and confirm what each has on the ground before you make the drive.
The two Kalispell consignment dealers average 4.5 out of 5. Bergeson RV rates 4.6 across 65 reviews, and Bish's RV of Kalispell rates 4.4 across roughly 920 reviews. The review counts differ a lot, so weigh the smaller dealer's rating with that in mind.
Yes. Hire your own inspector rather than using one the dealership suggests. A consigned unit belongs to a private seller, so you want an independent look at the roof, seals, tires and appliances before money changes hands. The few hundred dollars it costs is cheap next to a failed fridge or a soft floor.
Sometimes, but it is less routine than financing dealer stock. One of the two Kalispell dealers advertises financing. Get pre-approved at your own bank or credit union first so you know your number, then ask the dealership whether they can work with a consigned sale.
