You can't really second guess any deal anyone got a few years ago, or even earlier this year. At the time we each thought we got a good deal. Even though I saw that '88 go for $45,000 on Craigslist, I am still very happy with "my deal" for $39,500, and wouldn't change a thing. We love our coach.
You know, Clarke brings up a good point; the market has fallen a great deal in a short time. My question is: Will prices recover at some point in time? Will a 1993 Newell 43' like this one sell for say $80,000 as the recovery solidifies? Or is $69,100 the new benchmark for 93s that are 43' and similarily equipped? And can we base the value of other Newells off of this sale?

In short, can prices go back up?

What do you guys think?
