Buying Equalizer from Online retailer

Has anyone used this online retailer?

Adventure RV Center,
2910 Newport HWY,
Sevierville, TN

Their pricing for a 600/6000lb Equal-i-zer is almost $100-150 less than anyone else.

Equal-I-Zer Weight Distribution Equalizer Hitch 6000# lbs - $389...

Feedback appreciated

Does that hitch come with the shank and how much is shipping ? RV Supply Warehouse $465.00 with free shipping.

If memory serves, that's where we got ours - I also found as you did that they had the best price - and it does come with the 'Shank', as a complete unit...Prompt shipping!

We couldn't be happier with the performance, and especially, the ease of hooking/unhooking, a big plus in my book!

Make sure you buy the ball from Equalizer. It is hard to find one with the exact specifications that are needed for the hitch off the shelf. I have an Equalizer and have been very happy with it.

Don't see a problem with buying a known brand on-line.

Look for the best deal and pounce....
but why not wait 'til 'yer finished LOOKING, you may end up with a 25ft'r and need to start all over again...

Hmmm, good advice.... however, I was thinking (based on my blurry-eyed forum reading) the spec's for the 24-25ft'rs (late 60/early 70 TWs) I've been looking at would still match up with the 600/6000 Equal-i-zer.

Shipping was ~$50, and that included shipping for an 10K Equalizer ball, so it sounds like pricing is comparable to RV Supply Warehouse.
