I saw this on my local Craigslist, and thought someone might be interested because of the price. Montana Canvas tent, 12 x 14, also comes with floor and fly for $500.

I live about 30 minutes from there, and could possibly work something out in getting it to you, but cant promise anything.

Maybe the seller would ship...

Gotta love this line:

"not going to set it up so pictures would be of 2 large bags (tent in one & frame in other). "

laugh

If I was closer, I might be interested, but without seeing it, and dealing with shipping, it's just not worth it, to me.

Probably gonna be a real good deal for the right person though.

That's a steal at $500 for someone.
ColdBore is right, it would have to be a local sale.

He does need to work on his math skills. $500 is not less than 1/3 of $1200. Just sayin.

If you're going to criticize, you might want to work on your reading and comprehension (and maybe math as well) skills.

Also caomes with a floor and fly of white "tarp" material. These alone cost over $300. These tents are upwards of $1200 new without the floor and fly. I want it out of the garage so offering at less than 1/3 new price. $500 gets it.


"Over $300", plus "upwards of $1200" equals more than $1500, of which $500 is indeed less than 1/3.

Just saying... whistle

I have the same tent without the floor and I think it weighs around 90lbs. Shipping would be an expensive affair as others have said. Wish I lived closer though, I'd buy it as fast as I could get there.

You are right Coldbore. I am not going to make excuses for my reading comprehension, but it was a little on the late side for me. LOL. Thanks for clearing my mistake up.

I talked to the guy, and he said that when he opened it up with another prospective buyer, they found a few 3/4 to 1" holes around the stove pipe hole. I think he said there was a total of 5 all together.

Other than the fact that whoever he bought it from rolled it up "dusty" as he said, he said it is in good shape.

He said it rolls up to about 2' in diameter by 4' long.

If I didnt have 2 kodiak canvas tents, I would probably pick it up.
