Hi all, I'd appreciate any views on an auction I've been lucky enough (I think) to win on Ebay.  It's for a Sunncamp Shadow 800 + Carpet + Footprint.  Was purchased in 2009 and has been used a couple of times, with one small tear that has been repaired. 

We've only paid £90 which seems too good to be true (the seller has excellent feedback too).  It's going to be my family's first proper attempt at camping in August and I'm hopeful the wife and kids will enjoy with a view to buying a brand new tent afterwards. So any advice/guidance anyone can offer (re ebay tents) would be greatly appreciated, e.g. I assume it'd be a good idea to try and put up sometime soon?

Regards Pete

I bought my first tent from ebay & it was a very good buy.  Agree you should get it up asap. but it sounds like a bargain. Having a footprint & carpet will make it very comfortable & looking at the tent on internet it will be perfect for family camping.  Well done!!

thanks for all the responses, much appreciated.

Due to put up for the first time at the weekend - I'm completely over-excited (even if the OH isn't) :)
