RV Wholesalers....Thoughts opinions?

Hi again everyone,
So as some of you may know from my other post, hubby and I are narrowing down our search on fiver or TT. We are military and move around a lot (will be in 6-8 months). We are thinking of buying from RVW and picking up on our way back east. I have read most people have had a good experience with them. Has anyone worked with them? Were you satisfied? We will probably order ours to the specs we want. My biggest concern is getting there to pick up, and its not right.Then having to wait in Ohio, to get the problem resolved. Any opinions, thoughts or general guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I also want to thank everyone on this forum, you all have been so helpful and I have learned so much from being here

I bought both this trailer and my last trailer from RV Wholesalers, and had a good experience both times. I had no problems at all getting a fair price, closing the deal, or at delivery. Very easy to deal with - they quickly fixed a small issues found during the walk-through at delivery (both times), and I was on my way.

Recommendation: If you're traveling far, stay at the nearby state park (only 5ish miles away) so that you can go back right away if you discover any issues.

We bought a class C from RvDirect in 2014. Picked it up in Buffalo, about 6 hours from us.

We got a great price and the experience was good. There was only one thing I didn't like (but I chose to hold my nose and do it anyway) and that was that I had to pay before I arrived for PDI and pickup. It worked out fine but......

The other thing to consider is that unless you are reasonably close to one of their retail locations, you are on your own with service and warranty. I am fortunate to have a local dealer that had no problem working on a unit I didn't' purchase from them. Not all dealers have the same attitude.

I tryed to buy from them. Spent a bunch of time working with them. But i was unable to get the "bottom line" tell the end and it ended up being NOT a great deal. I ended up buying from wanna rv the bottom line was up front. Great people to work with. Good luck!


Hmmm,my experience was just the opposite. I got a bottom line price from them, no-problem. Even with a $3500 shipping cost to the west coast, they were thousands under any one else. Was ready to order from them when a local dealer matched their "delivered" price.

We bought from them twice but then we live in OH only an hours drive away. No one would match their price and they did exactly as they said both times. Most RV issues are the responsibility of the manufacturer, I generally try to fix things myself but I did have an issue with an AC that they located a repair shop that did a lousy job on it but RVW did helped me get the shop to correct the problem. I was also career mil and had several RVs and other vehicles over the years and rarely could go back to the original dealer. There is a nice state park (Indian Lake)very close to RVW. You might want to spend a few days to check out the new RV. Also WPAFB is only an hours drive and has a decent Fam Camp and all the other military services. I would buy from them again and I think they have the best price.


Thanks, yes if we do decide to go with them we will staying nearby for 3-4 days to make sure everything is up to par before heading out. Thanks for ideas of where to do that.

I did do a search, and did see mostly great reviews about them, just figured I would check.

I see in my search people always say them and RVdirect. But when I search them there are a dozen or so websites that have similar names. Can someone give me the web address to the one that people are always talking about, I want to make sure I am looking at correct site. I checked with BBB and found one that had a A- rating, but when I go to the website listed on BBB it takes me to RVone Superstore, so I am a little confused. Thanks.

a quick search here would give you thousands of posts about them.
you'll get the info you want way quicker doing that, than waiting for others to post.

bottom line is that the vast majority of RVW customers are happy.
