Having used my TT twice, both on weekends which involved big groups of people I know, it's received a LOT of interest. I think I could have sold it 4 times over.

Anyway, a good friend of mine is looking to get one. Her mum, a keen camper, has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer, and feels like camping will be out of the question now. She's already had a mastectomy and has started on 5 months of chemo. They are both involved heavily in the scouts, with my friend being a scout leader.

They don't have much funds - around £200, and since I was very lucky to get a TT through this forum, she asked if I would post on here to see if anyone has one for sale ?

There is her, her mum and her lad who is 10. At the moment she's got a tent (and was with me when my tent died in the winds at shell island) but her mum won't even consider using that with her anymore.

They are in Northwich, Cheshire.

Thanks in advance.

Good luck with this, I've nothing to sell regrettably but thought a quick post would keep this front page for a while so you might get some joy.

Cheers

Have you tried putting a post on your and your friends local freecycle?  If you both had some stuff to offer a wanted post doesn't sound so bad :)

That's a good idea, i'm already a freecycle user and have def given away loads more stuff than i've had - which I'm fine with.

I'll put a wanted post on. Thanks.

Keep an eye - or post a wanted ad - on Preloved and on the free ads on here.  I bought a Raclet Jade in good condition from here this week for £200 complete with awning (thanks Mark!)

Don't forget to have a look on Ebay. We bought our TT (now sold on) and FC on there. You can sort to look at ones nearby by entering your postcode

Thanks for the replies.

North Devon is too far unfortunately

I have been in touch with someone on here who is selling theirs and am waiting for my mate to decide - it's quite a big one and she only has a little car so it might be too much.

Not looked on ebay recently, but when I was looking for ours I know they tended to go for quite a lot on there, sounds like you got a bargain mauretta.

I got a lovely CombiCamp from eBay a couple of years ago for around £120. It's brilliant! Keep your eyes open and always inspect before bidding because there is some rubbish being sold.

Hope you find one soon!
