We just don't get rid of the old ones, that's why we end up with so many.
Old 4-man dome, perfectly serviceable but small rip in porch groundsheet. Advancing years meant we needed a tent we can stand up in, so got ...
5-man dome. Used for many years but now elderly, some poles and elastic loops could do with replacing and I wanted something I could put up on my own. This led to buying ....
The Khyam XL Excelsior. Fab tent, but a pole joint broke when I had a senior moment while putting it up. Emergency purchase of ...
Icarus 500. This was a fab tent, and ended up getting used instead of the Khyam as it was so much quicker to peg out. That one got trashed by stepson and Mr F replaced it with a 600.
So we have 2 that we use to lend non-tent owning friends if they fancy joining us on a trip, and 2 that we use (well, only use the Icarus nowadays, but I wouldn't get rid of the Khyam in case I fancy a solo trip again).
Mr Fran wants to buy a camper van now, so it's easier to get away for spur of the moment weekends. I could have bought my last tent.
