Bushwalk Australia

Howdy, I bought this shelter and extras last year but with continual work travel commitments over the last 12 months have only used it one night, in a suburban back yard! (So it is still in perfect condition). With lots more work travel coming up, including a move to the UK, I’ve now decided to sell this. I will definitely buy another one when I’ve settled again and can find time to walk – it’s a really nice shelter, well made, light (~ 570g including poles according to manufacturer specs, I haven't weighed it; plus pegs), a palace for one, cosy for two and very well ventilated - but I may buy the new longer version. (I’m 185cm - 6'1" - tall and use a Neo Air mat and found I was almost touching the ends of the shelter if I stretched right out. It was fine if not stretched out, which is most of the time, and granted that the tent wasn’t pegged out properly due to a tiny backyard and a touch of tent peg forgetfulness on my part!? . The major reason for selling is that it seems too valuable to be sitting unused at home!)

Included:
- Hexamid Twin Tent (w/ screen), Extended Beak (Color:: Olive Drab - seems more like grey to me!?)
- Twin Cuben Fiber Groundsheet, Color: Black
- 5 x Elastic + Mitten Hooks (to clip groundsheet to shelter)
- Fluro Yellow Spectra Cord and Micro Line Locs (guylines)
- 1 x .265 inch Carbon Fiber Tent Pole,Length: 48.5 inches
- 1 x .240 inch Carbon Fiber Tent Pole,Length: 33 inches
- 1 x Cuben Tent Pole Sack
- Seam sealed

No pegs included

Cost $599USD/$575AUD (including shipping), plus an extra $25AUD for seam sealing (Total $600AUD)

Will sell for $420AUD including postage (within Australia)

Hi There

Not sure if you wanted to message this person:
http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin ... d_id=69955

They are looking for a twin hexamid. Sorry I already have a solo plue other wise i'd be keen.

If you need help contacting them via BPL I can help you get in contact as I'm a member on there.

Hope the sale goes well as they are a top shelter.

You might want to check, I tried PMing you and it wouldn't work ??

If your heading there, you could try Outdoor Magic J'bean? I'm not sure of the laws but they do seem to struggle with the cost of importing into the UK.. Might get a better price even?

Here is a thread about import costs into the UK

Yes you still pay duty and handling costs on S/H goods...

Hi Forest, Nuts, Franco,

Thanks for your advice and suggestions, much appreciated!! Forest, have just tried to send you a PM, please let me know if you receive it (I did just see a PM from Penguin, so that it seems that my PMs are working ... sporadically at least!).

It def seems like it is expensive to import goods into the UK. Will keep that in mind with regard to future purchases (and try and time them for times when I will be back in Australia). Fortunately for me, alot of the gear I buy these days is from the UK. (Nuts, I'll also keep Outdoor mAgic in mind although, ideally, I'd be keen to sell it before I leave, to reduce my freight - not that it takes too much room - but also because I know I'll be flat out and into other things once I get over there).

Penguin, sent you a PM in response to yours, hopefully you'll get it? (Current price is $420 reduced from $460, sorry, that wasn't clear)

Thanks again!

Cheers,

JB

No PM came through from you. Mines working as I just received one from someone else ??
