i know its ana mazing tent and i love it very much but my oh wont let me buy the nice new kampa one i want unless i sell this one.

if i could get away with both i would, its been brilliant every single time ive used it but the kampa one i have found fits much better for our needs as a family, i wasnted all the bedrooms at one end and a fully encolsed and attached porch, i wasnt looking for a  tent, we went to the shop to buy some inflatable loungers and a new kettle and i fell in love instantly much to my husbands delight

Oh!! just been on completed listings and can see your problem!!!!! i personally would start at £150 (i know it seems low!!) there is 1 there that got £205. you just have to hope 2 people within pick up distance want 1... On the plus side there isnt many forsale!! I think to get the best price you need to do it asap

lol for the buy it now option i would list as just tent with free bits to fluff (thats a technical term) it up and make it look more enticing and reel people in.
If its auction style would include everything in listing
Hope that makes sense x
