Ordering parts / accessories

[love2rvcamp]

Other than Camping World is there an online site that you can order parts and accessories from? Any you use regularly and would recommend. I am not opposed to,ordering from Camping World just wondering if anything else out there that is commonly used.

We have a locally owned small town dealer that has pretty fair prices. Cheaper than Camping World most of the time. Don't rule out something like that if you have a good local dealer, I know not all dealers are good ones!
I have also ordered from Amazon, PPL, Etrailer.

Just about anything is better than CW for on-line sales.
I have ordered from most listed above... all good.

CW is better if you need to walk in and touch the stuff.

Up here in Canada I've used Amazon. Not the same as U.S. Amazon, so selection can be limited, but I've had good luck. We have a local dealer with a real good parts dept. too so I shop there when I can.

I'll second Adventurenet. Great prices, fast delivery. Wish I had found them sooner. Thw web page is not the most efficient to search, but works just fine.

While I use Amazon as well, I have always gotten good service from Adventure RV. (Dot net I believe).
I placed an order this morning and got an order number instantly when I placed the order (and an email as well). In less than 4 hours I had another email with a tracking number. They have always processed my orders correctly and I have never had a problem.

Forget about ever buying stuff from CW online. Everything is always "on sale" but you can just about always get it cheaper at a regular price elsewhere online. Once you have a specific item in mind, find the part number and/or have the correct description and head out onto the internet using google and shop 'till you drop. I usually find that Amazon and ebay cost more, but not always (their listing fees are buried in the item price and increase it). Need to watch the item and shipping cost as some lower the item price but jack up the shipping cost and it can take some effort to find the lowest overall price. Amazon often has the listing vendor's online company name and a few times I've gone directly to their online store and received a lower price. Same on ebay.

In addition to the already mentioned online RV vendors, there's also MakariosRV.com, RVupgradestore.com, AmericanRVcompany.com and easternmarine.com. There's probably a couple more. I've always found that these sources have superior customer service and you can easily pick up the phone and talk to someone. If there are order problems or a missing or damaged item, it's easy to resolve them. I've had a few cases where the vendor has just shipped a replacement, no questions asked and with no extra cost. Have even had a few that have phoned to confirm an order before shipping.

Be wary of buying some items on Amazon or ebay because the item may not include the full manufacturer's factory warranty.

Whatever you do, stay away from a parts dept. at a dealer.

www.pplmotorhomes.com

and click on Parts Superstore at the top right.

Watch for sale items if you don't need it right away. They have fair prices and even better sales prices, they ship your order quickly and will answer questions you have.

I always try the local places first before ordering online. There is a Glamping World nearby, so that's the last of the local guys. I don't mind spending a few bucks more for the local economy.

[RedRocket204]

Same recommendations as everyone else for online ordering but just wanted to throw a shout-out to etrailer.com. The people at etrailer.com 100% understand customer service and I would never hesitate buying from them... great online site.

The vast majority of stuff we need, I am able to find at Walmart.

Amazon, PPL, Tweety's, and Etrailer have gotten my business. I do an internet search and go with the best price (including shipping) from any reputable dealer. Camping World is rarely the cheapest.

[Quahog]

Often I find what I'm looking for on Amazon or eBay but Tweety's has the best price. I've made a number of purchases from them and never had any issues.

[charlysmom_dad]

We've had good luck with Amazon, American RV Company,Etrailer & Tweetys

[2milesup]

I've had good results using Tweetys.com. I once thought I had an issue with an item I got from them. I was wrong & they were right, and the customer rep was very professional and courteous while I figured that out. He treated me much better than I deserved, and now they get my business as much as I can give it to them.
