Just too expensive
I only shop at camping world for convenience. I NEVER make a large purchase there are they are just way too expensive. With CW buying power you'd think they would price their products more aggressive...

Clearly not what I said, there are other smaller outlets that are as expensive or more expensive.What he's not saying that others realise is that CW has more selection than anyone else.
Clearly CW doesn't have a bigger selection then the entire internet. It also depends on location. Many CW tend to be small, while some are larger.CW also is dedicated to RV stuff only. You can see and feel items first hand. Many are willing to pay a bit more for this convenience.
Do you really need to feel a sewer hose? A generator? An A/C unit?If price alone is your criteria CW is generally higher.
Well I'm happy to see you agree with me.
Some people like the one stop shopping and are willing to pay for that connivence. Good for you if that works for you. I don't like paying hundreds of dollars more just so I can, well I don't like paying more if I don't have to for the same exact item that Amazon will ship to my door for free.
I will give CW a shot since there is one close to us, but if the price is too out of whack then I won't purchase. One silly thing I had to do, was I had to ask for a price match from their internet store to their in store price.
If you are talking about the entire internet, then you can not compare anything to anyone at all. If you are going to do apples to apples, then do store to store, which CW is.
Also, yes, people sometimes want to see the quality of a sewere hose, a generator or an a/c unit. But that is not all they sell. I liked being able to go in and look at the shower heads and see the quality in person and compare it to others they had. I also like being able to go and be sure that I get the correct item for my RV. i.e. windshield covers. My 2013 RV is not listed in the windshield covers. But I was able to ask someone there about whether or not a certain one would fit and go out and put it on the RV to see if it fit. They told me if it didn't then I could return it. Much better than ordering something online and not knowing if you are getting the right thing or not. Plus returning something is much easier in person than online. Normally you will have to pay to ship it back.
