WTB: 1p tent

Sun 02 Jun, 2013 7:52 pm

Hey Everyone,

So myself and a mate have decided to take our trail running to the next step and do some o/n - 3day hikes. So my search has begun for some gear.
My wife to be has put a cap on my extra spending due to saving for our wedding :lol: so i figured check out some forums for some decent second hand gear.

so here i am... I'm looking for a lightweight one man tent that will fit me (im 6 foot 2") all the cheaper ones i can find, like the BW mantis I are just too small for me :(
my mate has just picked up the MSR hubba and its a nice tent, so if anyone has anything like this, they would like to sell please let me know :)
my budget would be under $200, im in brissy, but travel up to the sunshine coast and goldcoast for work regularly. Also happy to cover postage if its out of state.

Thanks so much.

One of these Ferrino tents might be of interest http://adventurefriends.com.au/ultralight/

I have a North Face Messo 22 if your interested. It's been seam sealed and has had very little use. It's quite generous for 1 and has a neat vestibule but not 4 season. I have camped with one child in the tent without trouble. PM me if you want to know more.
Cheers G_U

Hey giddy up

Just realised cause im a new member I can't send pm :facepalm:
But I got your pm

Consider the tent sold!!! Im currently finishing my end of trimester uni exams, and chance I can swing thru later next week and pick it up?
I will email admin and get them to remove the pm bar so I can send you my contact info.

Thanks heaps!
