Can someone please help us?  my Sister in Law has shown an interest in buying our 'old' tent from us.  A 2 year old Sunncamp Haven 6, we only used it four times before buying a Folding Camper July last year.

the tent was priced at £249.99 when we bought it, mind you we managed to get it for £199.99 .

the question is, how much would be a reasonable amount to ask for the tent, without either of us feeling 'ripped off'???

£100 sounds like a fair Price to me.

Anywhere between 50% to 75% of the  new price, depending on condition. 75% would really only be for a tent that had been taken out the bag, test pitched on a dry sunny day on a spotless lawn and carefully folded up into the bag.

I would say £125...that`s 50% of the current price, after all.

Like above it all depends on condition.....after i first used my indiana it rained and was caked in mud. Still find bits now and again and it also has a hole in the groundsheet and a toggle missing that i must replace.....only used four times like yours and this years model!!......still would only expect £180-£200 for it and its 6 months old.
