[FS Melbourne] Tarptent stratospire 2
Posted: Sun 03 Mar, 2019 3:27 pmI have one well used Strat 2, which has seen parts of Vic, Tas, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Norway, UK etc. Now, you need to know that I absolutely f'n love this tent.
But the fly zips busted last year and I took it to a tailor to repair. He didn't do such a great job, and installed non WP zips despite clear instruction. He did this about a week before a trip, forcing me to buy a new Strat li with express shipping (damn!).
Note the bug net zips work, but only one way. Tent is functional as is, but obviously not perfect. You could either use this as a summer tent, or get the zips repaired yourself by someone who isn't a numpty. With the Strat li, I now have no need for it. $20 to a good home.
