Winter base camp set-up

Time to move stuff on
I'd prefer to sell as a lot but I'll consider selling separately.
Helsport 12/14P lavvu
Helsport Stainless steel tent stove.
These are going to cost about $50- each to post and perhaps a lot more depending on location.
Very lightly used, just 4 times and in almost new condition.
Also I will include enough Nikwax Solarproof to fully re-do the tent.
Pick-up preferred naturally.
Links give full details and EU cost and shipping costs from the EU would now cost well over $500-AuD
Comes with a brand new Helsport centre pole and if picking up my home-made aluminium and carbon fibre 3-piece pole which is stronger but doesn't fold down to the same short packing bag.

https://helsport.com/eu/lavvu-stove--868-210-V
Current replacement cost about $5k- shipping/insurance and GST included.
Very, very strong tent so long as you don't get caught in a microburst at Pretty Valley
Wonderful group shelter and does pack down relatively small. Hard decision to make but I don't think I'll ever need it again.
Will come with lots of strong steel tent pegs, the Helsport tent pegs are LW and not really much good, I can include some very large home made snow stakes too if wanted
Asking $2500- plus shipping which is a fair price in my opinion but I am willing to negotiate as a bundle.

You really need a sled to drag something this big.
If coming to pick-up I've decided to sweeten the deal by including the Paris sled and the little extra caboose sled. The new hauling poles and harness got stolen but I will chuck in the old haul poles, I reckon that's a couple of hundred dollars worth as a bonus and the spare CF reinforced centre pole ditto
Members here are getting a heads up as I'll be putting it up on Gearfreak and eBay next week
