Caravancampingsales.com.au

Ridiculously expensive for a private seller and I got very little interest from the site. Other free platforms generated much more interest and, finally the sale. Wouldn't use again.

I had huge interest through facebook and very very minimal interest through caravan and camping sales/carsales. I would say carsales is falsely advertising. Highly ineffective and basically a fee for no service. Will never use again and will be advising others same.

Recieved 3 messages of interest through the ad published on carsales network at a cost of $240.00. In the same period, Facebook marketplace generated 32 genuine messages of interest at a cost of $16.00 I definitely wont be using, or recommending the carsales network to anyone.

Sold camper trailer in a few days – A few queries on Gumtree but no real buyers. Also Gumtree allowed me to choose 20 photos but only published 7, when I queried the small number of photos, here is the reply. Hi Brian, Thanks very much for your message, though I'm sorry for the delayed response here. It might help to note that all basic ads will only allow 7 photos to be posted. … Read more ·  1

We are aware that the workflow does give you the option to add more than 7 and we are working to have that resolved. To have more images posted, it is recommended that you purchase one of our packages and each package will show the number of images allowed. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to let us know. Kind Regards, Elysee Gumtree Australia http://www.gumtree.com.au

When I asked which package I could purchase, stony silence..... if there is such a package I couldn't find it. CaravanCamping Sales achieved a buyer almost immediately and allowed over 20 photos . When I deleted my Gumtree ad just now, it still showed the 20 odd photos I had chosen but only 7 were published......

Impossible to discover all ad packages features designed to rip you off after posting – The website does not state with the ad packages how many photos you can upload, no amount of googling asking is helping me or searching their website as every mention of how to add photos etc never gives the number limit - absolutely ridiculous. I do not know if I pay then submit my photos I've uploaded some may be removed if they exceed their… Read more

limit, so can not post my ad until this company tells me and I have to wait for them to respond by email due to no contact number. I'm trying to create an ad right now and have added well over 200 photos just to test this and they will let me submit the ad and pay for it with no warning they won't include the hundreds of photos I've uploaded - and obviously they're never going to accept all of them but I have no idea what they will or won't so can't choose the best photos within their limit. I can't believe even when I go right through to payment there's no warning I have way too many photos but they'll accept payment anyway when I can absolutely guarantee there's no way they'll post all the photos. Absolutely ridiculous and what a good scam - because I can bet if they don't post all the photos you thought would be included you'll never get your money back.

Selling A Caravan – We recommend the Carsales Network / Caravancampingsales.com.au to anyone trying to sell a Caravan. We had an enquiry after two days, and sold our Caravan to that buyer. Plus we had several other enquiries in the first few days I found your site easy to use, listing our van for sale was a straight forward process, and, after having sold it so… Read more

quickly, the cost of the add was worth it, and I liked the fact that I could also have the added protection of having my private details secured, for an extra $ 20, and being able to have 15 photo's I think is a good thing.

In fact , yours is the first site I look at now,when looking to buy a vehicle or Caravan.

We did advertise our van on another site, it was a free site, and we had no response at all. ! Except one that was obviously a scam.

Don't change a thing, as they say, "when your on a good thing, stick to it".

Thank you, we are very happy to have sold so quickly, and will definately use your site again.

Have used this website for selling a caravan before and all went well. Used again for sale for family deceased estate sale and went amazing. Listed the caravan and had immediate hits. Someone came the next day and a few days later paid a deposit. The van sold almost immediately and I still had other people wanting to look at the van if the sale… Read more ·  1

fell through. Already telling other people to use this site if they want to sell their van. Well worth the cost of advertising on the site.

Efficient and Successful Advertising Site – Creating and managing the ad was straightforward, and it attracted several enquiries in a few days. On another sales website we only got "enquiries" from scammers, no genuine contacts. On Caravan and Camping Sales we got only genuine enquiries. We have sold our caravan. Thank you. Show reply

Fast and safe platform – Excellent and safe platform for engaging between genuine sellers and buyers. We're so happy to have sold for the exact price we were hoping for in 24 hours after listing! Thank you for making such a great platform! Show reply

After paying a ridicules $180 with caravan camping sales to list on your website then since Feb this year 8 months later and with only one enquiry a time waster. I decided to list on facebook which is where I normally sell everything. My caravan sold instantly within 24 hours. that just shows how disappointed I am with caravan camping sales and would never use or recommend you ever again. very disappointed

Received faulty cow fish antenna contacted the guys at sales so unhelpful told me they will contact cowfish and someone would contact me several calls later email from cowfish to say they would pick it up and a technician would look at it in the mean time hole in my caravan roof and the caravan and camping place has my money Had enough so just… Read more

asked for a refund I was informed from Nathan that I would have to wait until the antenna was delivered back to cowfish and assessed!!! Still waiting for my refund This company is so quick to take your money but so unwilling to give it back DONT USE THESE GUYS I CERTAINLY WONT BE

For the amount of money spent on this ad ($299), I got less messages and ranked lower in search results that I did with the free Facebook Marketplace ad. The reach and quality of leads from caravan camping sales was very low with a lot of time wasters. When I bought this up with CaravanCampingSales and asked for a refund, they refused and instead… Read more

upgraded my ad which they said would make my “ad appear higher in search rankings”. However the performance of the ad didn’t change at all and still only received a total of 4 enquiries in a 4 week period. Very unsatisfied with this product and don’t see the value in paying to post a caravan sale here. You’re not offering anything different to what other marketplaces do for free.

I was charged over $200 to list my caravan for sale and when it was listed it first appeared well down the list. After two weeks I had received no inquiries. The same listing on FB Marketplace received many inquiries and the van sold through them inside two weeks.

Not sure why anyone would pay to use this site to sell a caravan. Twice now have paid hundreds of dollars and not one enquiry over a month or so of having them listed. Put them onto Market place and get hundreds of clicks and saves along with multiple offers resulting in quick sales. Contacted the support office to get some help as to why I not getting any enquirers and they just don’t care.

If selling a car privately, highly recommend. I sold my car in 2024 within 1 week of advertising. Decent number of enquiries. If selling a caravan via their caravan sales arm, don't bother! Only had 1 enquiry in 5 weeks of listing. Ended up selling the caravan via FB marketplace with 30+ enquiries.

I purchased two jerry can holders in December 2023. They were made from such cheap steel that when I put a 20litre container of water in the holder it bent so badly that I was pulled over by another driver who told me I was about to lose the jerrycan as the holder had bent. I contacted the store and was assured I would receive a full refund. I… Read more

contacted them many times before finally taking the matter to The Department of Fair Trading in February 2025. Low and behold they finally paid the refund.

This is for caravan camping sales stores. Ordered an IC50 , received IC25 . Told them to return and refund money as I had to get another as I was going away. No refund just sent correct one out. I told them I will return them as soon as I get back from holidays. They have had both back for 2 weeks and keep getting same responses, that they are in… Read more

a sales period and to busy to check it. I would stay clear of this company, as you will keep getting the same replies . I think they just copy and post replies and not read the emails.

$129 later no one enquired, not even a scam. No feed back other than a standard email. My caravan was the second cheapest in its range, plenty older vans going for more. Gumtree at least got a few tyre kickers and lowballers, all show and no go.

Do not use this website to sell – the vehicle details put on automatically by Caravan sales were the wrong ones and I requested for these to be changed several time with no response. I wasted over $200 on this advert

Ineffective advertising – When you advertise your caravan on this site your description is put under comments. I couldn't find it and I knew it was there. I was motivated to find it and eventually did after opening all the headings. Listed under features is the manufacturers specifications. If I was a buyer I would just move on, scratching my head because there was no description.

Not 1 enquiry from paid ad – Never got 1 enquiry from my paid ad. Facebook is free to advertise and i got all my enquiries from fb. Carsales network was useless to me.

Sold the vehicle on Facebook Marketplace where 90% of the sales enquiries came from. And Marketplace is free – Very few enquiries from this ad as I did not select the 'Featured' option and pay big $'s.

Do NOT buy anything from Caravan and Camping sales Store – Do NOT buy anything from Caravan and Camping sales Store.... I purchased an item over $500 and about 3 weeks when it hadn't arrived I checked the tracking and found the item left Victoria traveled to the Sunshing Coast Qld ( I live near here) then traveled to Sydney where it sat for over 2 weeks ... when trying to find out what was going on I… Read more

discovered that you could only communicate with the store via email ... emails that didn't bother answering .... eventually over a week later I receive a reply it hadn't been shipped yet country to the shipping information, more emails sent without answers ... now 5 weeks later my requests for a refund have been ignored while the latest tracking shows the goods are now heading the opposite direction to Victoria again.

Poor service, Waste of money – Very poor service, wasted money and time, don’t get one inquiry over months since paid $219. Very disappointed and never ever again to use this site
