Online swag purchasing

Hey crew,

I'm looking to purchase a new and upgraded swag in the near future and with lack of buying options in Exmouth I am following up with an online purchase. Has anyone bought a swag off the net, know of any goods stores that are reputable and have reasonable prices?

I have looked on E-bay but am a little wary as to a sale gone bad not long ago.  The prices are very tempting from what I've seen, has anyone bought one of a reputable seller before they can recommend?

Ultimately, I'm looking for a single rollout, multi layered type job thats easy and durable for where I will be using it. I'm looking to spend upto 500, but would obviously like a cheap good option as it is to be tax deductible. A photo of what I'm looking to buy would be good too.

Cheers,

Adam

Just to let you know matey, you don't need the link tags around strings (web addressess) the site's software will automatically display it as a hyperlink. :))

Just a guess, but freight is

Just a guess, but freight is going to be a bitch up to Exmouth.

If you can find one you like in a Perth Shop, or at least one that offers free metro delivery, during the sale season, I can pick it  up for ya.

After that, I'm sure someone heading up to Exmouth wouldn't mind taking it the rest of the way for you, if you ask nicely.

i got one off ebay couple of years ago, mitchell single something by oztrail i think. 75mm matress fly mesh all around except corners also has the full canvas job to cover up with if its cold or raining, very well made i treat mine like crap and it still gives me a warm dry place to sleep. Has the hoops for it which i dont often use, makes it like a little igloo.
cost me about 220

Thanks for the info and the numerous PM's guys.  Looks like it has a ride to Exmouth but I need to get it before early July, time to sting the bank balance!

Think I'm going to look at this one in the king size with heavy mattress:

I have an opened end swag

Tue, 2008-06-17 14:00

I have an opened end swag and they are great, as long as there are no, centipedes, scorpions, snakes,mossies, sandflies......

I now pick my spots where I sleep in it now, and take a tent if the mozzies and sandflies are around.

My next swag will most definitely have sandfly mesh.
