Good morning all. I hope everyone is keeping well?
So I thought I would post an update. I decided to take the plunge and buy said tent. It was retailing on eBay for circa £90, and at check out I was able to apply a 10% voucher code, so I got it for the princely sum of £81.59.
It arrived yesterday. As yet I have not had it out stuff sack, but it looks fantastic quality wise. I think I was a bit concerned that it was a fly by night character selling it on eBay, but it seems a genuine (BNWT) item.
As regarding the seam sealing I have also decided to buy McNett seam grip and apply, at the end of the day it's not going to do it any harm having an extra layer of protection I guess. So hoping to have up in garden Saturday to apply seam sealant, then look forward to first opportunity to try out in the field.
Thanks for everyone's feedback and input, much appreciated
