There was one like that in Makro for £50 + VAT last month!!!
Watch the maximum / centre height as that tends to vary. I'm looking for something that I can stand upright in! The height they show is the outer height I believe and doesn't allow for inner tents etc.

I spotted some tents in my local Aldi. Six berth bendy pole for £50. 500x400 and 2.2M high, which seems big, but the box wasn't.

Another advantage of the caravan, and when you go in there's a fridge full of cold beer.
That tent is very good, especially at 99p, but must be very heavy if the postage is £56

Another ruse to avoid the ebay charges (based on final sale price!) I wonder whether the seller would be happy if the 99p buyers offered to collect or arrange their own carriage - I'm sure there's a ebay rule that the sellers carriage is not mandatory.

JP, absolutely spot on, loads of room, could of rented some of it out. Rotti got worried when I invited him over for sundowners one evening and sit in the porch, I s'pose he thought he was going to be propositioned Next year thinking about having some bedside cabinets for the side lights and installing a 5:1 audio visual set up for entertainment.

Just been looking at the price, thats way too expensive, I only paid £140 plus extra few quid for a double sofa bed which was Okay except i kept falling into the crack between the sections. I think next time i'll try one of those double thickness self inflating beds that are available
