User friendly site, flexible on managing changes, widespread reach.
User friendly site, flexible on managing changes, apparent widespread reach and new people every day.
Sold three vehicles, all at or close to asking price. Perseverance paid off, even when it took a few weeks.

Great site for selling your caravan
Had 4-5 enquires, been for sale 3 weeks, add worked but hidden amongst the mob of vans for sale. First person to make contact brought the van. Good outcome.
Advertising made easy.
Easy to set up. One off payment with no hidden costs. Ability to pause ad. Easy to manage.

Caravan and Camping Sales account help.
We have had our 23 month old caravan advertised for at least 6 months now. We would like to change the listing category from Off Road to just Caravan as this allows the add to show up in allot more searches. But for the life of me I cannot find out how to change the listing. Also we have just had inquiries about or van but now we cannot log into our account to see them to answer any potential buyers questions. When we try, the site just times out both on the mobile app and on the PC. It cost us $350 to place the add and this is just so wrong an
... Read mored it could cost us a sale. I have had to emailed help today, as the call Centre is closed (Friday during business hours) and as its just before the weekend any further messages that we get about our add we will not be able to answer them until this is fixed. To pay the amount of money they charge for an ad and not being able to speak to someone 7 days a week is just plain wrong.

Waste of money. Expensive and zero enquiries, vs free and sold via Facebook
As a buyer, there are a good range of vans available on Caravancampingsales, but as a seller I found it was a waste of money. You have to pay a fee on this site, compared to free on Facebook Marketplace and Gumtree, and the fee depends on how much you advertise it for. We were selling a $35,000 van and the advertising fee was $165! That is very expensive just to have your van advertised!
I did get lots of scammy 'enquiries' via Marketplace which I just ignored, but got one good enquiry from the eventual buyer and two good enquiries via Gumtree
... Read more, one of whom would have bought it if they'd got in earlier. However I got zero enquiries from Caravancampingsales. Over the same time period I got 198 views and 5 saves on Caravancampingsales, compared to 1200 views on Marketplace and about 400 views on Gumtree. So there appear to be more people looking on the other platforms too compared to this one. $165 is just a rip-off when there are genuine buyers on free platforms. I wish there was a way to get a refund as I got absolutely nothing out of that money. The trouble is that if they keep shafting sellers like this, they will simply move to the free / cheaper platforms and eventually Caravancampingsales will become a shadow of its current self like the Trading Post. All I can do is warn others not to use this site until they make their prices more reasonable.
Hi Greg, Thank you for your detailed review of selling your caravan with us. I have passed on your ad number, the review in full and the supplied images to our team, via a dedicated feedback channel.

Hi Greg, we don't offer a refund under these circumstances. Thanks again for your feedback. -Alex
Camper Trailer Advert
Reasonable pricing for simple adverts.
Good messaging system for buyer enquiries without having to enter my mobile number.
Easy to set up the ad using the template.
RESOLVED: New "Parts & Accessories" Store - Shipping Charges
Caravan and Camping Sales Store (Parts and Accessories) added $24.50 Shipping charge that suggests it is being charged by 3rd party seller but it is not, and at same time their invoice says Shipping is free. I can't get a response or explanation from CCS Store, have tried multiple times. If I ordered from 3rd party seller directly it would have saved me at least $16. Won't buy from this CCS Store again and get caught with "fake costs".
Customer Services (Alex) organised for the $24.50 Shipping charge to be refunded (the charge, was a system glitch which is now resolved). I have changed my rating to reflect the level of Customer Service response and outcome. In the end, a positive experience using the new CCS Store.

Great place for selling
We found this site was great for selling and had excellent coverage. Ads were easy to upload and edit as needed. We used boosts which were great but this can add up.
Had some genuine lively people conta t us with questions. Eventually sold through this site and the sale was great and smooth.
Great site
Very easy and it reaches a big market. Had many replies to my add. Was happy with the end result

we were scammed
within minutes of placing our ad we were contacted by a woman who was very insistent we pay her to manage our sale and she would advertise our van through all the grey nomads social media sites. WE paid over $200 and did not receive any further contact from her. Her company seemed legit. we did not receive any sales referrals through this either. We would not sell through this site again. very disappointed.
Show detailsHi Julie, Thanks for letting us know and sorry to hear about the scam contact. We take these situations very seriously and would like to have a closer look at what happened. Could I please get your ad
... Read more number to pass onto our Trust and Safety manager asap? -Alex
Sale of Jayco Flamingo Camper
We sold our awesome Jayco Flamingo camper.
It's one cost upfront and you have an advert that is Australia wide with no issues, it took over 6 months to sell, (hard time to sell with the all the interest rate rises etc) Caravan Camping Sales just hung in there and it sold.
A lovely family in Mt Gambier own Pinky now.
Happy glamping guys.
Easy to place and edit my add
Had several enquiries and was purchased by the first to look at it.
Was easy to load and edit my add

Did the job perfectly! The Motorhome was provisionally sold the first day of advertising in 'caravancampingsales'.
I do not normally "recommend" a business, any business, to friends or relatives. I only mention whether or not I was satisfied with the product / service given. The experience for me from 'caravancampingsales' was extremely good. And Yes, I would definitely use your services again, should the need arise.

So hard to put advertising on CaravanToo specific.
We have a Creative caravan for sale.
Unfortunately our model doesn't come up on the site.
So to still get online I need to put false information re Caravan
Then change model in comments.
Very frustrating

Didn't get a lot of interest on Caravan sales, but plenty of interest elsewhere
Expensive & received no help or assistant in selling. Used Facebook marketplace which was free and got a lot more interest than here.

Questions & Answers
I'm looking at selling a Ford Transit van motorhome, however, under Motorhomes there is no Ford option. I can enter Kea, then Freedom, but that doesn't show it's a Ford Transit, which is no good if people want to search for Ford Transit.
I have seen other ads where the heading is "Ford Transit"
Hi, Give us a bell and we'll be happy to help. 13 72 53. -Alex
Good morning, could you advise how I can delete my old caravan add from your website please, I sold my van some 5 months ago but as yet I’m not able to delete the add. Many thanks Janette
I’m wanting to know how to delete my caravan for sale add from your website please. Janette
Hi Janette, Sorry to hear you've been having trouble removing the ad. Give us a call on 13 72 53 and we'll be happy to do it for you. -Alex
Hi I've looked at your site but it doesn't show how much you charge for a caravan to be advertised with photos etc???
Hi Mags. My ad was free but was limited to 10 photos. I chose a once off showcase option for $16 which lasted three days I think. There are paid options if you want to promote your ad or add special features. These can be added when and after you submit your ad.
Hi Mags, the pricing varies, to get a price for your caravan, follow the prompts on this page: https://www.caravancampingsales.com.au/help-me-choose/sell/caravan. We have a variety of different options, some of which David has mentioned. -Alex
PS - thanks for the help David! This page is always so friendly and helpful.
I find it more than shady that cararavancampingsales.com.au cannot give a clear price BEFORE placing an advertisement!
First of all, I'm not ready yet (eg no photos taken). Second of all, our vehicle is so unique that I'm not sure if I even should bother, because the site might not reach people who could be interested in our specific vehicle.
Right now I can't judge how much money I possibly would waste on a near monopoly with possibly the wrong target audience.
Hi, You're welcome to give us a call tomorrow so a staff member can find out a price for you. When a seller is looking to advertise a more commonly found caravan, you can usually find out the price by entering the details on site (you don't need an account up until this point), but as you're selling something unique, you may be better off calling us. 13 72 53. Thanks Alex
