Forget about buying locally because local sources are higher and usually a lot higher than elsewhere. Go on the internet. I've found that there are typically better prices than Amazon and ebay. You can't talk to anyone at Amazon if you have a question or problem so I avoid them as much as possible. I got burned once by Amazon because the item had flimsy packaging and was damaged and when I went to return it, I had to absorb the return shipping cost. Ebay can be okay but since sellers have to pay ebay selling fees, the cost of items goes up. I also don't like being forced to pay by Paypal.
There's a number of really good independent online RV parts vendors - Tweetys.com, pplmotorhomes.com, RVupgradestore.com, dyersonline.com, adventurerv.net, and a few others. Customer service is superb. Just do a google search with the item name + description and see what comes up. If you have a part number, that helps too. You also need to compare item cost + shipping cost. I've found that 99% of the time or more that CW has a high price even though everything is "on sale" all the time, and often the cost is much higher than others.
