Campmor does indeed have a real store.  It's in New Jersey and one of
the things I've always liked is that they have most, if not all, of the
tents they sell set up for you to see.  Nice people too.  Once, when
they were out of stock of a map I wanted, one of the owners went out to
her car, got her map and photo copied the sections I needed.

Reasonable prices too.
