Default Trading Toys?

Are there any sites out there that are focused on people trading big boy toys? Sometimes folks might be asset rich/cash poor or have a piece of depreciated equipment that they would rather turn into something fun. Buying and selling can be such a pain in the ass, and it might even be harder to trade, but it may be worth a look. It seems like after 3,4,5 years of playing with something, I am ready to change out for something different.

No idea but I will say the RV market has crashed. My buddy just bought a 45 Diesel pusher for 1/2 of what the previous owner paid in 2021. He said the lots are full and the buyers aren't interested anymore

not wrong, the after effects of the wuhan and cheap $ has began, 90+% of side by sides and golfcarts were financed in 2020 & 21. Cant answer to the RV/PWC/Boat market but we suspect its similar percentages. Anyone notice how many car lots are over-flowing with inventory especially the domestic brands.

Last month I went to the National Powersports Auction in San Diego. There were side by sides as far as you could see (maybe 200 of them). One of the auction guys told me that most were repo'ed and just about all of them were rougher than a night in jail. They have 900-1100 each month between domestics, metrics, and off road stuff.

One of the major lenders in our area will not even look at a UTV loan right now.
