Just bought a new 13' Scamp

Kind of a strange week.  My wife and I have been waiting all week to go to Orlando, FL on Saturday to look at and buy a 2018 Scamp 13'.  Just before getting a bank check for payment I contact the seller to make sure it was still available.  I was told the bad news that it had sold Thursday!  Bummer.   Wife disappointed.  Bad day at Black Rock.

We convinced ourselves it was not meant to be.  It was obviously a sign from GOD to order a new Scamp. Anyway, called the factory about an hour ago to find out how long it would take to get one.  We were told September was the soonest.  Wow!  Then the sales rep asked what size we were looking for.  Told him 13'.  He told us that a brand new 13' model had just be released for sale that they built for someone who cancelled the order if we were interested.  We were and all the options we wanted were included except one item we can live without.  We made the deposit immediately and are set to pick it up in two weeks.  This new Scamp with everything we wanted was only $800 more than the used one we were going to buy in Orlando. Strange week indeed.

Good for you! It sounds like it worked out for the best. Hope the weather cooperates for you when you pick it up!

Meant to be

Excellent story and obviously meant to be. We are heading to Backus in March to look at and finalize any thing we missed so they can build our 13 with toilet/shower. Been on order since around july/aug and we hope to pick it up early June and would jump on it earlier if possible.  We are coming from a 30+ year old motorhome so some learning curve in the future.
