Big Fees to buy at Camping World?

And why would the sales person brag about it? Kind of like gloating that they're ripping you off. I'd remind them there's plenty of RV dealers out there and move on.

Every dealer is going to make some money somewhere in the process.
Are those fees exorbitant? Yeah
Do other charge those types of fees? Some do,
Its up to you to research the difference, Many dealers put their fee structure on the website, some charge no prep or documentation fees, find what unit you want , research it to death to find what you can get it for elsewhere, total out the door price , and then deal with whoever works best with you.
You do have to wonder though , how many people because of worrying about the financing, dont pay close attention to that issue, it's the same thing car dealers have been doing for ages.

You go through an interview up front and they present product to fit a monthly budget knowing they need to include the fees. People apparently are foolish enough sign anyway.

Also, if you are looking for their exclusive products like Coleman travel trailers, you are stuck dealing with them and those ridiculous fees.

$16200 trailer ends up being $22,000+ by the time you add tax, license and these crazy fees!

I agree with kerrlakeroo's point about out the door pricing. I don't really care if the dealer wants to charge me a dollar for the TT, and call the rest of the total price "dealer fees". If they come in under the other total prices I'm shopping, that's what matters.

Of course the salesperson's off-putting attitude may be an indicator of the company's attitude toward their customers, which is a separate consideration from pricing.

It doesn't make a tinker's darn what there fee's are, it's the final out the door price that matters. I decide what I want then find the dealer that will give me the best price, you always have the option of giving your local dealer a chance to price match.

I see 2 other people gave the same message before I.

What you might not be aware of is they just purchased about half of the Cabalas stores. And they have a Camping World football field in Orlando Fl. Got to pay for it some how and guess who? YOU

Exactly. The "fees" could add up to $25,000 and the price of the unit could be $10.00....or switch them. Nothing matters except the bottom line and if you are happy with the deal you got.

do your home work on the price and only pay out the door price, I never look at all the add on,s I find the rv I like and barter till some dealer meets my figure or darn close. even out of state . p.s. the last three rv,s I bought were in other states and payed thousands less than in my on area.

That's funny. Not a chance in my world

I run into the same issue buying vehicles, they like to stick on $300 for processing, state limit is $400 I hear. It is sort of fun getting a deal made for xxx$$$, then point out that I will only pay $100 for processing. they say that Jimmy Owner wants that line to read $300, so I say fine, and we take $200 off the price. My salesman said that he wouldn't let $200 stand in the way of him making a sale.
