Campers Inn RV – Philadelphia

Horrible buisiness and salesman! STAY AWAY! I started by calling to talk to a salesman because I’m 3 hrs away from this place. Salesman (Anthony) did not want to negotiate any price over the phone, completely understand that but was unable to even discuss prices on campers listed as «contact dealer» when I said a business that won’t disclose prices is hiding stuff he told me to hold on and said him and his manager would email me a list of campers in my price range. NEVER RECEIVED IT. So I called to make sure the one camper was still there and drove 4 hrs in traffic to get there. When I arrived, there was 4 offices with windows out front and could see 3 guys, after walking around for a couple minutes tryin to find out where to go, not one person ask to help, I had to walk in and ask for a salesman and the guy I ask was just sitting at his desk with his arms crossed just looking around watching. After finding the salesman that I talked to on the phone, hoping I would get treated better in person than I did on the phone. That did not happen. Went out to look at the camper and he was arrogant, rude and smart mouthed. Was not worried about what we wanted as customers but was more worried with telling us how we like to camp and what we would or wouldn’t want. When looking at the outside he proceeded to say «well just make decision and buy one and get it over with» REALLY??? He also told me that the price listed was «as is» and I can handle that but when we also told me that they deliberately list campers cheap and don’t advertise what is as is and what gets the bells and whistles price because people will more than likely come in, that tells me this is a very shady business. I also ask what other campers was under a certain price to look at and he told me none, which I don’t believe, he did not want to even discuss or find out what else I would be interested in. I wouldn’t of drove that far if I new that was an as is price from a dealer on a 2011 camper and he had no desire to disclose any of this information on the phone knowing I was driving this far. Beware of this place and stay away.

i have purchased three new campers from media camping center since 1998 and it does not get better than this .best service best sales and they always help you with your new camper showing you all that there is to know about your new camper .very nice people work there and always help you out. so if you like camping and want to get a new camper or a used camper get over there and ask for Jeff. nice very helpful guy.

I should have listened to some of the other reviews I read about Media Camping Center on some prominent RV message boards. But I thought I would take a chance, since some of the reviews read like sour grapes and there were several positive ones, too.
I took my RV in to get a few different repairs done. I scheduled an appointment a couple of weeks in advance. I had a couple of leaks that needed to be repaired.
I walked out to the RV with the service manager, Harvey. He looked at the OUTSIDE of the water heater, which was not where the leak was, and right away said «this is going to be expensive.» What? Without even seeing the leak? I should have sensed something then.
Two weeks later, and not all of the repairs were done. This even after making the appointment.
The last big item, they quoted me 32 hours (that’s not a typo) to repair the leak. I called the company that makes the RV, and they said it should take about 8 hours. Right away I called the camping center back and told them to stop all the repairs, i would be there to pick it up. I took it to another local repair shop and had the leak repaired in three hours.
