Looking for any input on 2000 model Coleman popup camper. Curious as to the value of one in good condition but has some cracks in the fiberglass top. Good, bad or ugly campers?

I had a 2000 Coleman sun ridge. It had the top. The top is NOT fiberglass. I don't care what the seller tells you it is PVC plastic. It is a one piece top and Coleman lost a fortune because of these tops. Trust me I know first hand. Those tops have not been made in 10 years and nobody will try to repair it. I had people tell me this and that would seal it. Nothing but one thing worked. The camper dealers sell a white rubber roofing repair that comes in 25 ft length and 6 inch width. You cut it to length. The top must be clean before putting the repair rubber on it. It is white in color and it has a very sticky thick rubbery ( looks like tar) sealant on the bottom side. Roll it out while pulling the paper off the sealant as you go. Roll it out with a rolling pin and overlap each one about 1inch. This is the only thing I found that worked. And it worked well. The repair rolls cost around $22.00 each. I covered my whole roof with 13 rolls I think it was. Good luck. Check the inside walls all around for signs of water damage. We paid $2,000 for ours in 2008. It had a slide out. We sold it for 2,500 in 2012. But we did a whole lot to it.Looking for any input on 2000 model Coleman popup camper.
