After asking Breezeblock for his opinion on the Gelert Vario 6 on offer for £150.00 on Aspinalls website I decided to buy one.
You actually all thought, thank god, he has decided.
On emailing Aspinalls I asked the question 'is the tent a 2006 model and at £150 does it include carriage' I recieved a response from Graham Aspinall himself telling me that the cost of carriage was £20 extra.
So I thought I will go on the website, order it and get it collected only to find when I looked the tent had risen in price to £195.00 + carriage.
After emailing Aspinalls for a confirmation they have gone surprisingly quiet!
All I can say on the subject is
ABC Camping
Aspinalls
Anybody know a poor supplier starting with B?

the porch dimensions are the same on both the classic and excelsior,so the GS fits no bother,its the pod annexe's where it falls short,considerably more than 6 inches away from the door panels,probably around 15 inches.the only issue i can foresee is that the webbing/tension straps in the doorways will have to be pegged down to stop the late night forward roll/diving when people trip up on them when the panels are rolled up,but thats not a problem really.
just a bit annoyed that Lynn at Aspinalls told me some white lies to get a sale out of me,which isn't on considering the amount of buisness they've had in the past from me.
still,i think it'll all work out ok in the long run,if the worst comes to the worst i can always add a little bit of extra GS as i have a few grey sheets spare in my loft that i've accumulated over the years.i'd take it back and get a refund if the excel sheets where readily available,which owing to the discontinued ridgipod range means they aren't.
might give khyam a bell on tuesday and see if they have any in stock,but i'm still playing with the idea of keeping it after the suggestion of the smaller sheet staying dry in showers with the panels rolled up.
------------- there are 3 types of people in this world......those that can count,and those that can't.
