The almighty dollar has affected CW...They used to carry Siemens solar panels which were excellent.  I think it was 2-3 years ago that they dropped Siemens and switched to IPC.  I learned at that time that the move was made solely due to $$$$$.  I assume that the same holds true for why CW dropped Banks.
I made inquiries with several alternative energy stores and all said that the IPC brand is inferior.  None of them recommended it and I wound up buying a Kyocera panel for my RV.  YMMV

 Yup...there are a lot of things that Camping World used to carry, but don't any longer.
 When we were fulltiming, we had a set of orange leveling blocks (Lynx Levelers) which we'd purchased at CW.  When we stopped fulltiming 5 years later, we had most of them left, but made the mistake of including them with the RV when we sold it.
 By that time, CW had stopped carrying the Lynx Levelers, so we bought a set of the yellow ones they were selling.  By the end of the FIRST season, most of them were broken (and we had a much lighter fifth wheel)!
 We've since purchased another set of Lynx Levelers at the local RV store here in Q.

 Remeber the 10% and 15% 'off any one item' coupons that they used to send out once a month?
