I’m selling my 63 Overlander.
I see several online sites wherein I can pay a fee and advertise.
Does anyone have experience with this sort of marketing? Any recommendations on finding an online service that might reach the desired vintage trailer market? Thank u!

While you are deciding, list it in a free ad on Facebook Marketplace. I sold my 5er there in 2 days for asking price to the 1st person to respond. And had over 20 other seemingly serious inquiries before I could mark it sold.

^What BB said. Put it on FB and Craigslist.
Idk why folks actually pay a bunch of money to sell stuff private party.
Maybe some boomers don’t use those platforms, but the majority of adults do, in my experience.
You could have had it listed for free or $5 in the amount of time it took to ask the question here.
Unless maybe you’re marketing it as a museum piece or something…but bottom line, it’s a camper and the $ spends the same whether you think it’s special or not.

I would think that an Airstream forum would draw the right buyer. They're probably fanatic about something like that.

Another good suggestion. I’d imagine there is a very small market for “vintage” campers. But Airstreams are so popular and overpriced that if priced accurately it may attract a normal buyer too.
I was blown away, a few years ago, my buddy succumbed to his wife’s wishes and they bought a fairly new little 16’ Airstream. I recall he paid significantly more than I did for our same age big ole toyhauler. He thought it was silly and so did I. He was prepared to lose his …. On it. Then they moved back to Canada and he sold it (never used it really). And even with the ex change rate he made a fair amount of money on it!
