Heads up Vango Banshee tents;
Maybe of use for lightweight camping; I was considering buying one of the Gelert Solo tents which are going pretty cheap at the moment but then found the following 2009 Vango tents at a good price.

They are a good quality 3 season tent for the minimilist backpacker wishing to maintain a low profile (literally!).

The Vango Banshee 200 is going for just under £60 delivered

They are also selling theVango Banshee 300 for just under £65 delivered which is quite a saving on the RRP.

Hope this is of use to someone. When I checked their stock a few days ago they told me the price was going up soon. No connections to retailer etc.

Bargain! - can I justify (yet) another tent...?

 

[basha]

Of course you can..........It takes up so little room

That's a great buy , i think i've got enough tents ...

Not bad for £55 quid. I'm selling a completely unused banshee 200 if anyone would like an even better deal. Would let it go for £45

They're great tents, fairly roomy for such a lightweight small packing tent. I only go on driving trips these days so just use my 4 man one though

i have the 200 and its excellent for solo packing but i paid 80 quid for mine so it is a bargain

Looking at these yesterday to go between me and Calibanzwei's packs i'm quite taken with the 300

Does anyone know what the stripped weight of these is eg any non essentials that are included in the weight like extra pegs etc. the weight could come down quite a bit with the addition of titanium pegs etc.

the 200 is 2kilo's the 300 is 2.5kilo's tbh you won't knock much off that.
