Not seen any either and it's probably because there are other pegs that when used correctly are just as effective and cheaper. Just my opinion of course and i await the backlash from the Delta fan club..
it could also be that they are relatively recent innovation and not widely seen in shops ?
the Delta threads do seem quite 'fanboy'ish sometimes and I have to admit to dismissing them as too short to work properly (and me a qualified engineer cum scientist!) but then I got some freebies and am really glad they are in my peg bag
We were on a site in the storms back in July and my biggest rock pegs were squelching their way out as the ground went from rock hard to mush. A few Deltas replaced them and they were grand, dead easy to get out too
Admit to being a bit of a peg fetishist anyhow, I have a wide selection from 30 years of collecting, of rock pegs, V ripple pegs, sand pegs (up to about 18"), wire pegs, lightweight pegs etc - though not got any screw in pegs yet though as we are minimalist, low tech campers and dont carry a drill
In those circumstances the Deltas were the best for the job by a long way - the sand pegs were too long and soft to get in properly (ground still rock hard a few inches down
All my plastic pegs died years ago from wear and breakage
but the Delta material seems to be a glass reinforced nylon which I would expect to be pretty resiliant
Personally I wouldnt just use these, plain V pegs and rock pegs work fine a lot of the time but they are a useful addition to the kit bag, if I lost mine I would buy some more

Hi Bibbster, I hope your dog is not over 30 stones because that is the latest test result.
