Group buy tube stakes - CANCELLED

[el manana]

Big Sky have UK stock of these back in (they're actually 18.5cm).

The £8.63 for 4 of the large size ends up at £18.00 by the end of checkout with a hefty shipping from a uk warehouse and then adding VAT. The website is quite clunky jumping from pounds to dollars and back.

Lighter than Eastons, i use them instead and find them just as good.

p.s they sell out quick.

By coincidence I just looked at these yesterday and they were out of stock.
I notice that BSI have the Revolution 2p in stock in the UK. Hopefully it means that they're getting some stock finally coming through.

Worked fine this morning when I ordered. I've just tried it and it seemed to be okay, i didn't want to go any further. Does the shopping cart default you to the UK?. I paid by PayPal.



It is really clunky in places

For some reason it says it will ship to the uk for about 20 euro all in but as soon as i changed it to Ireland the shipping goes way up and its 60 euro all in!!!

Looks like to the uk it ships from uk warehouse but to Ireland it ships from Asia warehouse!!!...Go figure!! Oh and it wont even give a quote to a Scottish postcode!!

Are these essentially the same as Eastons but without the potential head popping off problem?

 

[el manana]

@Calvin A little bit shorter (i think?) and lighter, pretty much the same, i've been using them instead of Eastons for 3 years on two of my tents.

What made you switch over?

 

[el manana]

I didn't really @Odd Man I only have one set of Eastons which i still use on my SL3. I prefer to have a set of pegs for each tent, makes packing easier not swopping pegs in and out. So i bought a set of these for my other tents, 2 x Phreerangers.

No noticeable difference in performance.
