If you search the web you can find them at the same price, some cheaper and some more expensive.  Some offer free delivery and some don't.  All I am saying is that the items on Ebay for Total Camping are not any different to anyone elses overall.  They are cheaper on some items more expensifve on others the same as everyone else on some.  They are certainly not the bargain that everyone needs to queue up for. 

With most of the websites, if you point them in the direction, they will match or even beat the price, especially places like Outdoormegastore or World of Camping. And these are established companys that have a proven track record in customer service and support.

There is no one place that I have ever seen that is the cheapest for everything.

I am not saying there is anything bad about Total Camping in any way, good luck to them if they are able to give a bargain, but the items they are selling are just the normal everyday prices that the other stores sell 365 days a year.

The outwell windscreen in total camping is £29.99 + £7.50 delivery ( total £37.49 ).  On outdoor megastore it is £29.99 + £4 delivery (Total £33.99 ).  In our local camping shop it is £29.99 as I have seen it in a few camping stores I have been in.

The main topic of this thread was 'Total camping are selling items on Ebay at dirt cheap prices'.

my mum bought us a tent from e-bay a couple of years ago, for the size it was cheap, it was a freecamp. it was rubbish. we think it was an an american brand. it was flimsy cold and leaked when it rained, it had two stupid flaps about 2 1/2 foot square which where held down by  2 minute pieces of velcro, not good in anything above a moderate wind on the coast. we rapidly bought a vango when its short life ended.

Coleman is an American brand & there are a lot of their fans on here, certainly not seen any threads on here describing them as leaky rubbish (?!?!?!)...

I like eBay itself & there are some good sellers on there - you just have to be careful who you buy from & research the price beforehand! It makes me cringe when I see people paying over the odds for stuff that is cheaper elsewhere, particularly when caught up in a bidding war. It's good for lots of unusual things, just bought a beautiful handmade birthday card for my Mum & got some great bargains in the past.

The trouble with expensive items on Ebay is that the sellers come and go.  If you have a problem 6 months down the line then you could be in for problems.
