After much deliberation I have decided to sell my Tentipi. It is simply not getting used now. I got it almost 10 years ago and the first pictures of it are on this thread.

http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6958 My the girls have grown.

The tipi is the Varrie which was the top of the range at the time. I think this is now called the Safir. It has insect netting built in. The top hat has cords you pull to open it in various ways. I am also including the groundsheet which was an extra. this is pretty heavy duty and zips open on places to allow you to have a fire in the tent.

There is a hole in the tent that has been repaired with a canvas tent repair kit. This came from drying the tent in the garage and hanging it in such a way that the edge was too tempting for a mouse to nibble. There is another hole that was from some glass when I was rolling the tent up. I have just put duct tape on this. I have pictured it without the duct tape too so you can see what you are getting.

The pictures below were all taken on Saturday (two days ago). My scales make the full bag with groundsheet, pegs, instructions and all about 15kg

Pictures from the original thread above so you can see this when it was new.

New today the tent would cost £1550 and the groundsheet another £200 at least. Given the condition I am looking for £700 paid by bank transfer. I would prefer it to be collected but will post it if the buyer pays the postage.

Any questions let me know.

I almost forgot I had listed this, what reminded me was this blogg just posted on SotP. An example of the tent getting used the way I should have.

I have a woodburning stove that works with this tent, complete with chimney that I will include for anyone collecting the tent. I really don't fancy trying to post a stove.
