Leshy,

I don't know how long the delivery will be, but I have made quite a lot :) of purchases through Gearbest.

They have proved solid for me.

I ordered one on 8th July, it arrived yesterday, very pleased with it, and it came with 2 X 2 metre lengths of approx 7mm diameter strong nicely braided coloured tree strops.
Mine cost a quid more than the one you posted as I went for a different colour. Thought I'd splash out :p.

I purchased it as a 'garden' hammock, but it would be suitable for some other overnight outdoor uses, especially in good weather.

Cheers neoaliphant.

Just browsing for something else and saw this trangia clone .
Seems like a good deal for what it does...
The burner may not be as good as a trangia (ie. Leak proof) , but it's still a bargain IMO at £17.99

The trangia isn't officially leakproof either. They warn not to transport the burner with fuel inside for all alcohol burners actually. (Burners, not stoves ;) )

Our new Trangia isn't leakproof. We would fill it, turn around to get the lighter and it was already half empty. We went through about 3 litres in less than a week.

Apologies on the unintended misinformation.
I don't even own a trangia, let alone a clone... I was just going on what I heard about the trangia clones not being leak proof, so I presumed that the original trangia with the rubber ring would be OK...
My mistake, either way , looked like a fitting post on the "I've found a bargain" section...
:)

Also remember to take part in the nikwax quiz every 3 months to get sent a free sample sachet



Tesco have buy 1 get 1 free on their range of Nikwax wash and waterproofing products available until 10/08 (tomorrow)

I've ordered 10l of Tech-Wash for £30 but the 1l wash and 1l proofer looks good value at £15 (£18 Inc shipping) for lesser users.
