I think it's vital to check a new tent out. Alot of the tents coming through this year have had small defects, possibly quality control is slipping. Most of them were too minor to worry about (I put Tenacious Tape over the small 1cm abrasion on the sig of my brand new, just out of it's bag tent, after determining that it was too much hassle to return it to the shop 75 miles away for such a minor problem)

There is a chance there is a more major defect, or poles or other components missing. You must determine this sooner rather than later.
