I may be wrong, but I think with this ebay shop, if you took something back to gooutdoors and said that the poles were missing, it would just be bagged up, label attached with the fault and sold some time later by this eBayer?,
He is selling a lot and doesn't have time to check everything, so lists the fault on the tag, someone gets a bargain because there isn't a fault, however, it's a risk you take!

Beware of buying tents without poles, especially Outwells as a new set of poles will costs you lots and lots of money. My son lost one of his poles for an Outwell Nevada M and was quoted £75 for a replacement pole or £200 for the complete set

Haha I was the one that bought the Nevada in the link above I thought sod it, It might work out to be a bargain in the end *wishful thinking*
Trying to source replacement poles for it if anyone knows of any lol have been quoted £120 so far and waiting for more replys.

CrossCamping I've just watched your pitching video on Youtube and was wondering if you can get replacement poles being a dealer???

Probably cheaper to buy another one with poles keep the best bits of the two then sell the other off. But if that was £120 for a complete set of new poles then that was very cheap as should be nearer £200

BTW, don't know if this will help, no idea of the length but, 12.7 mm poles available from Camperlands at £26.99. Not the durawrap kind of pole, the black ones. Sorry, forget the technical term. They are long poles made up of many sections. Might help? Might not!
