We bought a Gelert Quebec this year and after trying a cheap Argos tent last year the difference was amazing.
It stood up to the rain and winds and never moved or leaked, we were very impressed.
However we were intending to sell it as we are buying a caravan.
I am now wondering if it is worth trying to sell, as people can buy a whole package cheaply enough, although I personally think the quality is totally different.
Is it worth advertising, do people buy second hand tents? It was only used twice, it's just not for us.
Shall I venture onto fleabay...

New! Please upload a photo of your tent to the Tent Showcase!

Loads of second hand tents on Ebay. Check out to see if there is one the same as yours to see what price they go for. Enter good pics and description. You could try collection only saves trouble of working out postage costs.

I'd try fleabay. There will always people buying camping packages but there are also those who are upgrading their kit. Knowing what a great tent the Quebec is I'm sure with a good description and lots of photos you'll be able to sell it quite easily.
