Whats nice about Amazon, especially Prime membership, is the fact that most items, even "small" stuff, gets delivered quickly, with no shipping. Even if it costs a bit more than CW, it's still worth it to not have to go thru any hassle with ordering.
Needed an awning pull strap asap as my old one was about to give out. Yes, CW had one for $4.49 and the one on Amazon, A&E brand was $6.95, but free shipping so it actually came out cheaper than CW. Ordered 2 of em and had them two days later.
This was 3 weeks ago---CW would probably still have them in "processing".
Some of the products are not elegible for "Prime" as they come from an outside vendor or the manufacturer, but many are still offered with free shipping---may take an extra few days, but so what.
