And they want me to shop locally....
I have need of an older style A/C cover. On-line I find new at $130.00 from Amazon and used for $40 thru an E Bay seller. Here at home..I am just off the phone to the local RV dealer/robber...$240.00...

Be careful how quickly you blame the local dealer.
I was looking for a replacement car alarm system a few months back. Doing a self-install. Amazon wanted $110 for the system. The dealer wanted over $200. I told the dealer I would prefer to work with him, even if he is a few dollars more. His wholesale buy price was $135 - $25 MORE than Amazon's retail. He simply couldn't pay the wholesale, add a reasonable profit, and even come close to being competitive.
My point: It may not be the local dealer causing the price difference.
