I have never sold any of my old, unused camping supplies .... including my DishTV receiver and Tailgater, (Coleman stoves, lanterns, folding chairs, even 1 pound propane cylinders, and much, much more.) I've given every bit of it away while at campgrounds, specifically folks just starting out, or young families. Of course, I've traded my travel trailers at the dealerships. But all the old unused, or not wanted items, all.... give aways! In my opinion, they have served their purpose for me. I've gotten my money's worth out of them. I'm satisfied. Now I just want to get rid of them. And the surprises and the thanks I've received is absolutely priceless!
When purchasing for new items... well ... WallMart, Camping World, RV dealership parts stores, Sears, even Hobby Lobby, or anywhere, Cabela's, Bass Pro shops, even yard sales and second hand thrift stores. We have learned that, except for a few items, pretty much everything used in an RV is the same stuff used in a stick and brick house, including a hatchet and hammer, fire place pokers and tongues (all from Lowe's or Home Depot), Quick Shades from Dicks Sporting Goods.
When we used sleeping bags in our pop-up, we purchased them from Sears. Cast iron cook ware from Dicks Sporting Good (which we gave all that cast iron stuff away when we discovered flat griddle electric cooking .... Presto Flat Griddles ... from the local grocery store.
So you know, there really is nothing that really needs to be purchased for an RV that you have to go to anyplace special or specific ... unless you just enjoy spending more money at a name brand store ... like Cabela's.
