Vango TBS 100

1 man tents and cheapness, then you've come to the right place.

Er...unfortunately...all the Argos Pro tents were sold out.....We bought
them!

Some of us *may* have bought an extra or two....

Would you care to start the bidding at GBP 34.95...?

Yes, got one and like it. Packs down small and light but is long enough
for me (6' 0"😉 unlike some of the other one-man tents that were on the
market at the time. Decent sized porch will take a rucksack and a pair
of boots and still gives space to cook in.

A good outdoor shop should let you assemble it in store to get an idea
of size, pitching, and so on.

Got one, been all over in it (inlcuding the Alps)... great little tent, the
vestibule is big enough to house an 80l sack and still have room to get a
brew on.

I've just bought myself a Vaude Hogan, and as I'm struggling to save up
enough for a set of ice axes this winter, I'm selling my TBS 100. If you
want to pick one up nice and cheap (perfect condition, I clean everything
when I get back from a trip) then drop me a mail.... £60 is a fair price I
think.

Cheers for that, I am tracking one on e-bay and CCC outdoors are selling
them new for £75 at the mo'.
I have a Pro-Action tent and it's very good but I just don't trust it. No
matter how I pitch it the zips fell stressed and I would hate it to give up
the ghost when the weather got nasty. It'll be for sale when I get a new
tent.

I've used one on a week long backpack & found it excellent.

I have used one now for about 8 months and have found no problems. Also
excellent after sales from Vango. I stupidly damaged a couple of
connectors - contacted Vango and, by return of post, recieved a large
packet of 'tbs bits and pieces' free of charge.
I have long been a confirmed Vango user - tents, sleeping bags and packs and
can't fualt them or the service.
