Hi Stewy,
I've just ordered a Sunncamp tent from Outdoor Megastore online and so far it's been handled really promptly and professionally. Easter's held it up a bit which is understandable and I think the price was good, but I'm new so don't read too much into that bit. I've had emails at each stage and it's due to be delivered tomorrow, after ordering it the back end of last week.

Hope this helps?

I bought our Marechal Vario 5 Canopy from Outdoor2go last year based on the review on this site. It was shipped direct from Paris with the instructions in French or Dutch (I think) but illustrations and the review meant is was Ok to erect.

Hiya - the best price and delivery I found was tauntonleisure.com

They were the cheapest on the Vango Aspen 500 (although i think there price is up a little than Jan when I purchased) but delivery was free by courier and came within 24 hours.

I was that impressed I phoned them and congratulated them on an excellent service!!

We bought our Vango Colorado 600 dlx from Outdoor World.   Delivery is free if you spend over £200 (I've just noticed the price of the tent has now been reduced!!!!).  It was delivered in two days.

Bought our Khyam Yale via the Khyam website. You type in your postcode and it recommends 3 suppliers all charging the same price and postage. The tent arrived 2 days later. Very pleased with service

I ordered a tent online from outdooor action on Easter Monday, and it was delivered today.  Very happy with the service,  the tent is a bit heavier than I expected - though I can't complain as it was stated in the details online.
