Hello, we have a Royal Bordeaux 6XL ZG, we have had the tent just over 14months, during this time I have had to replace the support poles to the side of the tent on two occasions due to high winds, The first time I replaced the poles they cost £7 each but on the second occasion they were £15 each!!!.

My initial thoughts were that maybe the supplier has recognised a weakness with the poles and has marked them up due to the demand.

Has anybody else experienced problems of this nature, are there alternitives to the original suppliers for parts and repairs?

Love camping, hate being ripped off.

Thanks Dave
