Decide whether you want to sell your RV as an online auction or at a fixed price through eBay. Choosing the fixed price format is sometimes preferable to an auction for larger ticket items like RVs since it also includes a "best offer" option. An auction price usually starts low to encourage bidding, but if the bid price never gets to fair market value, you may loose money on your investment.

4
Take lots of pictures. Selling an RV in a virtual setting like eBay requires giving your potential buyers a good look at what they are bidding on. Be prepared to offer lots of pictures on eBay as well as other pictures if people email you and ask for specific photos of the RV.

5
State the delivery arrangements when you sell your RV on eBay. You might decide to deliver the RV yourself for a fee, or ask that the buyer arrange for delivery of the RV. Ether way, make sure you clearly state the delivery instructions on your auction or sales page so the buyer understands what's expected if he wins the auction.
