Another reason to be careful when shopping at Camping World

To CW's credit, stranding customers is very easy to do since potential customers are often inside RV's that they are considering buying when its closing time. The Mesa lot is a good sized lot. It's normal for customers cars to be parked inside the perimeter fence (outside) after hours.

It couldn't hurt if the customers became aware of store hours in advance of their visit. If CW had an intercom on the property and announced the store closing time in advance, . . . . . . problem solved.

That said, the Albuquerque CW almost locked my RV inside their shop up on the rack leaving me stranded, knowing that it was promised that day and that I was waiting (all day) for it in the customer lounge. Luckily I know the sound of closing roll up bay doors and I wasn't afraid to sound off.

I was robbed at a Walmart. Did NOT call Walmart but complained on Facebook. Could NOT figure out why I did not receive the response I expected to hear from Walmart and the Police:h. Jeeeez, they complained on Facebook, but did not call the CW and talk to the manager. Sorry, both CW and the customers have equal blame. CW for locking them in and the customers for NOT just calling CW and getting a proper response and an apology. Doug

A Star Trek Next Generation episode: "Q" (remember him), challenged Captain Picard with 3 wishes. One of those wishes Picard asked for a perfect world where everyone existed together in harmony. A world with no fighting or discord. A world of no jealousy, a world of peace.

"Q" obliged Captian Picard's wish and "presto!" Captain Picard found himself completely alone on a city street. He looked for other people and soon discovered he was the ONLY person there.

"Q" was quick to tell Picard he got his wish! Kind of true when you think about it.

No matter what happens, no matter what's done, no matter how perfect a place exists, no matter how much wealth, or ease of living, or comfort there is, SOMEONE is STILL going to complain about how everything is against THEM!

I'm 100% sure Camping World deliberately locked this family inside the fence! (yea, sure!) :S

If it were me, I'd find a comfortable camper and just spend the night!

That is funny there....
