NOW SOLDThought I'd re-post this in the Members Classifieds, seeing as I hadn't realised the Full member listings were restricted viewing! And a price reduction - I'll pay the postage. Anyhoo, here goes.
I bought this on my last visit to the USA, and will guarantee that it is a genuine official Tennier system, not one of the many copies around. It is the 4-piece woodland camo system - two bags, goretex bivvy and large stuff-sac. (The stuff-sac is brilliant by the way - with straps loosened, you can keep the bags and bivvy rolled up on it under no tension, so the fillings don't get crushed, but compress it down heavily if needed). However, as I already have too many bags, and have my eyes on another bit of shiny, I'm offering it for sale.
All I have done is take it out of the plastic wrapping and zipped all the bags and bivvy together to see how it all went together, then put it into the stuff sac for the flight home. This is a really well-made bit of kit, although I'm not sure I'd believe the -50C recommendation, but BCUSA swear by them. Sufficient for anything the UK and probably Scandinavia could throw at it though! THe lighter bag (with or without bivvy) would probably be suitable for Spring-Autumn use, the black bag and bivvy for winter, with all three together for the serious sub-zero stuff.
Price is £130, now including postage (which considering the weight, is quite a price-cut. Will consider px, particularly if you have a nice Vango Force 10 mk5, or a good lightweight tent - Vango Banshee 300 or similar.
