I just found this video, it was just posted.

There seems to be evidence that CAMPING WORLD and GOOD SAM may be near Bankruptcy.

THE CEO has frozen money on any maintenance on the buildings and they are (by reports)
very over extended.

This is the video...

“Gander RV” is the same company. They bought Gander Mountain and are using
it’s name for a new RV company.

Given CW's pricing and service, it isn't a surprise. I think they made their money off first - time RVers who didn't do their homework. That pool of customers is now empty. If they're paying 'floor plan' interest on their stock it's no wonder they're going broke.
Gander doesn't do well vs Bass Pro Shops.

Wouldn't worry too much yet. They just declared a cash dividend, definitely something a company short on money wouldn't do, and my Bloomberg Terminal shows considerable insider buying of the stock. They were recently downgraded by a ratings agency, but as someone who works in finance, this doesn't look like an imminent bankruptcy to me. Not the healthiest company for sure, but I've also never been a fan of their business model. Regardless, I wouldn't panic if you own a Camping World issued liability (for example a warranty).

Thanks,

CW's problems seem to be typical of a privately held company that went public but
tries to manage as a private. When they bought GM there was debts that didn't appear
on the books and now they (the CW stockholders) are stuck with it.
