I think it would be a safe bet that what you are asking would never happen in the RV industry. :(
I imagine it could happen with someone like Camping World or other dealers with more than one location - maybe ?
Simple answer = NO. (Never happen)
With the obvious exception as stated above (multiple locations for the same dealer).
OP: For best price - order the RV. "Shop" whatever you want to dealers all over the country, near and far. Always the *exact* same floor plan, options.
Find the best deal. Then re-contact dealers close to you to see if they will meet, beat, or come close to your best (benchmark) price.
Then you decide - travel(how far) for best deal.
If you are *only* willing to purchase something in a dealer's inventory, you are in competition with *ALL* of his potential "clientele" - no matter where you -or the dealer- are located.
Still "shop" it near and far, but be ready to "negotiate" - as well as sign on the dotted line "instantly", with deposit, etc. (Doesn't sound good, huh?)
However, if you are willing to *order* an RV - you are miles (and lots of dollars) ahead......and can nail down the best deal.
Simply stated, you are *not* in competition with other buyers!
Good luck.
