I've learned the hard way not to trust what anyone says, we have taken people at their word driven 400 miles round trip bought in good faith and later found damp. We now only buy from dealers ( only ones with great reports) with guarantee. Picking up a carousel next week from Gobur serviced and 12 month cover, costs a lot more but piece of mind.
Trailer tent was described as having 'no damage'. The canvas was nice but the poles had been badly twisted and all the button holes were stretched and had some sharp edges, also they were all really badly tarnished (what's going on with Cabanon quality - it was never like this on the old style of TTs!).
lidds0, I can supply new poles if you come across it again. If the whole arch is twisted when putting up the tent this will happen(ie not lifted squarely). The cost is £15 a section (6 x sections = 1 arch).
