I have our coach listed in the classifieds on this forum as well as on Craig's list. An outfit called POP RVs of Exton, PA has contacted me wanting to list my coach. They say they will add their fee on top of what I am asking so that I get my full asking price, and if I sell the coach on my own in the meantime, no harm, no foul. Does anyone here have any knowledge of this company? Are they reputable? Is this a valid offer? I always suspect scams from Craig's list posts.
I wouldn't deal with anyone who contacted me!
If you need help selling your coach You contact a recommended service , not a service that is fishing for clients. Jmo
Headquartered in Sarasota, FL with affiliates around the country apparently. No experience with them... jest a google search.

If you did list with them, you would be the only Foretravel in their (current) inventory. They have mostly "mid-level" class A coaches, like Winnebago, Fleetwood, etc. Not sure you would be reaching your best target market. I guess, depending on their fee schedule and how anxious you are to sell, it might be worth a shot.
Be sure you have exhausted all the "free" RV photo classified sites, before you resort to a paid listing.
You are offering a high quality product for sale in a Walmart world. If circumstances permit, try to be patient and wait for a discerning buyer.
Chuck we do indeed live in a Walmart world :thumbsdown:
Ok no political rants. Just say'n
They must be a relation to POPyachts. They exist, but they are pretty much an annoying scam trying to insert themselves as a middle man. I have not heard anything good about them. The "brokers" they employ are people that have no idea about the business and are just poor fools looking for a job and popSCAM promises them the world.
I've also read weird stories about them regarding owners that sold on their own and pop still said they deserve the commission. Put it on RV trader instead.
Steve and Ginny, I listed our coach here, on rv-dreams, and escapees classifieds. All were free. After several months of absolutely NO response I broke down and spent the money to put it up on rvtrader. Within a couple of days I had a sale. Unfortunately, the engine decided that it needed to be rebuilt, so we lost the sale. The ad has now expired, but we're going to redo it and try again soon.
You will notice that I did NOT list craigslist as a sales place. I asked about it and got mixed responses, which kind of reinforced my gut feeling.
RV Trader or Rvonline.com. Regarding Pop, Krush has it right. Scammers, sellers of vapor.
Yup, yup. When the Airstream was wrecked, we limped her down here, and (with two computers), started looking for another one. Spent a year looking, the only site that made sense (Other than Airforums) was R.V. Trader. Knew nothing about FTs, but started to see some very cool coaches on RVT, and stayed on, checking prices, paperwork, etc. Found this dear, close by, were able to communicate with the owner and did the deal! After we'd bought the coach, on our first trip, we met KENHAT, who turned us on to this site. Were I to be looking for a FT again (never know), the only sites I'd trust would be this one and R.V. Trader. ^.^d
Pops strikes again,they have a 2003 with pictures from at least 2 different locations,on Ebay.
