been looking aound the online tent sales sites i need to ideally get something sorted before the 18th of sept as i would like to attend the pillaton ukcs meet i have not booked it yet as this tent thing is sort of getting to us, it still looks like we are going to give the icarus a chance unless i can find something better at not much more money than we spent on the icarus set up.

been told a cash return is no problem so i shall do some shopping around and then make up my mind

Seriously mate, if you don't think you can ever love her then set her free.

I've been picking out some tunes for you already though if you wanted to give it a go ... Barry White is top of my list at the moment ... "My First, My Last" ...

What's the GO policy on returning 'used' tents?

Now, even I know I've gone too far this time.

(Look cut me some slack. I thought I did well not to mention 'seconds' or 'soiled'.)

ritchie,sorry to hear about the tent,but to be honest mate,even though you are a bit pi..ed off at the moment,you are not going to get another tent deal like that.With regards to the quality my 600 is minted could not be happier,and 99 per cent of people with the 500 feel the same,you have just had some major bad luck.

spoke to some one i know at yeomens,and he told me they get returns from all makes off tent manufactures,when the tents arrive from china there is quality control at this end but with the volumes coming in some bad ones are going to slip through the net.


I would personaly return the tent and ask for a new one.Dont think you will get the same value for money on any other tent in the market.Hope you get yourself sorted out soon.

I called vango direct and explained that the inner tent arrived marked with what looked like footprints and possibly a marker line on the inner tent i was assured that this must have been a quality control checked one, I did ask if stevie wonder had worked for them long but he didnt laugh, anyway i have decided i cant match or even get close to the deal i had on the icarus and to save divorce proceedings by asking for more cash im going to stick with the icarus set up all the frayed ends i have tidied up and i have cleaned the inner tent now so i shall possibly give it a whirl on the pillaton meet, the dogs had his first needle today and should be ok to be out about the 8th of sept a week after his second jab
