Camping World Quality
I am a big fan of Good Sams and Camping World. I shop their often, and it is not close to me.... Lately I have been having issues with the quality of the products they are selling. Has anyone ...

I try to learn how to fix everything ...
That reminds me of three things:
1) About 3 years ago we replaced my wife's flip cell phone with another one we bought at a garage sale for exactly $1 because we thought is would be a waste to pay for a supposedly "free upgrade" that our cell phone provider kept trying to goad us into.
2) A few days ago I drilled through the corner of the lid (the part with the display in it) of the laptop I'm typing this on and put a little tiny screw, with a little tiny lock washer and nut on it to hold the lid together so as to try and get a few more years out of the laptop instead of buying a whole new laptop because my 7-8 year old one is "falling apart".
3) A few days ago I bought a new $2.99 socket and switch assembly to replace the assembly that the bulb screws into on my common and cheap 20 year old desktop lamp because it's stupid to throw away an "otherwise perfectly good lamp".
Does anyone in the U.S. do these kinds of things anymore to repair or replace the gizmos in their lives? I guess if too many of us did these kinds of things the U.S. economy would tank.
