Need to buy a stainless steel draft door. Any price difference in buying replacement parts from the mothership then a dealer? Thanks

    I don't know a lot but I do know the answer to your question, No it will not be less than a local dealer.
    I'm not trying to be a smart a#$ but if the mother ship was less then why would a dealer want to be a dealer? The price is the same so if you have a good local dealer that you are happy with I think you should support the local dealer.
    I asked about a deal on a new Egg the first time I stopped there and they told me if they were less than a dealer the dealers would not be happy. Makes a lot of sense to me.
    I love to stop by the Mother ship and visit with the fine folks there. I have been there two times and each time it cost me a night in a hotel.
    Hope I was helpful.

    It depends on what you are buying. I have gotten some parts free from the 'Mothership'. I just ordered a tent, it was $249.99 at the dealer and the 'Mothership', the difference was the 'Mothership' wanted 50 to 80 dollars shipping and the dealer had it put on his next truck, free. Buy from the dealer, keep him happy and he will keep you happy.
