Old Olive Australian Hootchies on ebay

[kard133]

I have just purchased one of these:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131119775070?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

I asked the seller about the size, weight and condition, they replied that the Bashas are approx 2.6x1.8m and 3/4 of a kilo (their words) which matches the specs for the Hootchi, and "in great condition". As usual, caveat emptor I only just ordered it and it will be a few days before I receive it and can post about the quality.

If not for use it may be of some interest to a collector.

I made an offer of £8, the seller countered with £9.50.

Very good price especially if you look at what ray mears sells them for.

It arrived today, no rips or tears, the sheet itself wouldn't let water pass through when held under a tap, but the seam sealent is peeling off, so it will need going over with some silicone or the like. Overall not bad for for the money, it would cost nearly that for materials and time to make one.

Thanks for the heads up, shame he won't post outside the UK
