Summer sale, July 2020

It's a while since we had a sale and it's long overdue. We have a number of items eating up space in our gear room, some of which are a little offbeat, which we offer here for your delectation.

First up a Vango F10 Xenon UL2 tent. We've owned this for just over a year and it's seen little use. It's a sturdy, roomy, two person, budget backpacking tent which would, perhaps, suit someone trying out backpacking and wild camping for the first time. Easily large enough for two, it also makes a great one-plus-dog tent. It's undamaged except for the very slightest bend in one pole section, which is barely visible at all once the tent is erected, but can be seen when the pole is out of the tent. I can confidently say it doesn't affect the tent's performance in any way.
Here's a link.

And here are some pics.



Here are two photos showing the bend in the pole and the same pole, once the tent is up. As I've said, it's not visible once erected. If it really bothers you, you can buy a repair kit here, but, frankly, I reckon it's unnecessary.



You can have this for £150 including p&p.

Next, a Terra Nova Competition Tarp 2. I bought this for my French cycling epic in 2018 and used it just twice, so it's as good as new. Here is a link to the description. It's 290mm x 248mm and weighs 337g.

Here's a photo of it in its bag. 


Yours for £50 including p&p.

Next, a Jetboil Fluxring frying pan, for use on a Jetboil stove. Here's a link again with the full description. It's in its original packaging. You need an easily available, inexpensive adapter, to use this on a Jetboil stove. This has been used a couple of times but is as new, save for the very slight marking on the non-stick surface, which can just be seen in the pics, here.






The pan's your for £25 including p&p.
Edit: the pan is now sold.

Next up, a Multimat, inflatable pillow, which can be attached by included velcro, to a sleeping mat. Here's a link.This has never been used, hence the self adhesive velcro strip is still there, protected by glossy paper, as from new.

Here are some pics.



Yours for £7 including p&p.

Now for a couple of motorhome/campervan/caravan/camping items.

First we have four Lafuma chairs. These are from the short period when we had a large motorhome, before we downsized. They are very good quality, steel framed chairs with woven polypropylene fabric, so safe to be left out in the rain. They're all as new, the only sign of use being very minor marking to the stove enamelling on the underside of the legs. Hardly noticeable. Here's a link.

Here are the pics.




You can see the new price from the link. We'd prefer to sell these as a pair or, preferably, the four. So, 2 for £50 or 4 for £90. But we're not posting so you'd need to be able to collect. Sorry.

Finally, one 6kg, refillable Gaslow bottle. Again, this is from our big motorhome. It's been used for 2 years and is now about 5 years old. These things are pretty much indestructible and guaranteed for 10 years by Gaslow. This has the type 2 valve on it, to connect to another type 1 bottle. I know it's a longshot for anyone wanting one, hence it's a bargain price. It's also full of gas. Here's the link and here are a couple of pics.



You can have this for £70, but again, it needs to be collected.

If you're interested in any of these items, you may contact me by sending a comment to this post, or an email direct to me at geoff.kmrt@btinternet.com or contact me on Twitter @GeoffCrowther1 or Chrissie at @chrissiepebbles

There are some bargains here, so don't delay...
