Hi. Does any one no of any retailer / camping shops selling outwell tents with a flexibly payment packages would love to get a better tent but don't have the money up front so would love to pay a monthly fee and then get the tent I want....
I think there are the odd retailer here and there that off credit on tents but the interest is high. Also if you are paying on credit and the worst happens and the tent blows away you will still be paying for a pile of poles and scrap fabric....it can happen.

Yeomans used to do a good system where you got the tent after you paid it up interest free. It was good because you felt like the tent was yours and you could pay it as much or as little as you want. I wish them or other retailers still did it this way. I would either interest free credit it or save up as others have said as the catalogue tents look a bit rubbish and well overpriced.
Yep, two card shuffle with a Credit Card, buy with card A and then do a balance transfer to card B to zero interest over 12 months say.
Work out your spend, say £1000 which will no doubt cover tent and all kit, then pay back at £83 per month.
It's a good way of spreading the cost.
Of course there is a cost like the 3% they charge, in fact I BarclayCard have an offer of 1.5% at the moment.
Also be aware that they do charge you interest at the normal rate for the 3% portion, so on my example that would be around 20% on the 3% charge so £30+6 so that would need to be factored in taking the £1000 balance to £1036 so to clear with in the period the payments would need to be more like £86 but you get the picture.
