[VIC Melb] Wanted: inflatable sleeping mat- NeoAir or Synmat

[bjc]

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to buy a second-hand inflatable sleeping mat for my wife, probably a Thermarest NeoAir or Exped Synmat. So if you have anything like that to sell, please PM me.

I'm in Melbourne so can pickup nearby or arrange postage.

Thanks,

Benjamin

I recently upgraded to a Thermarest Neoair Xtherm, so can't sell but my thoughts are go with the 3/4. It'll also depend on her confidence, adventurousness and resilience whether 3/4 is ok or not. For below the mat, I will use the pack & CCF/spare clothes to put my legs up. This will reduce the weight of her pack which will make the walk more comfortable and less demanding. CCF does double duty as a seat for lunch stops. Oh and I'm a 175 tall woman. The 3/4 mat will also inflate faster which she will appreciate later on as they don't inflate all that much without the pump. If 2 of you have very similar mat, a pump can be shared between you to reduce weight further. I've only tried the mat at home but will post reports later after its first use in the field.

No one in their right mind would sell a Synmat, but here's a second hand Neoair:

Thanks for the suggestions. I did see a couple of Neoairs on eBay but the prices were high considering you can buy a Synmat UL 7 new for $120. So I'm still looking if anyone has anything to sell...

I've used the UL Downmat too. Both wonderful. Just buy a new Synmat (full length for comfort) for $120.
