I bought one a week or so ago when they wen on sale for $17. It came and I looked it over pretty good. It looks allright. Not Sil, but a heck of a lot lighter than the poly tarps I've been using. Stitching was good. No snags or anything in the material. Can't wait for the next chance to use it.
I just got my 8.5 yesterday. The cam on it looked pretty great to me, the included tent pegs (heavy I know) were a pleasant surprise nonetheless. At a guess the tarp itself felt a bit heavier than a Hennessy hex tarp, but I don't have the respective weights right here. The seams looked pretty good and about what you'd expect. But the real kicker is, spare camo tarp for thirty bucks, shipped all the way to Australia. That's neat.
I got my 8.5 yesterday as well. It looks good so far I will see low it holds up in the rain soon

Hangers,
Hard to beat that Chinese Child Labor rate. Still, all in all, excellent product values until ... nobody has any extra $ to buy "stuff" ...
Got job? More and more of my neck of the woods is becoming un-employed due to off-shore labor rates.
For now, I guess we'll just print more $ and pass it around ...?

Well I feel guilty...
Yea me too I feel like I need to go put the Stars and Stripes in the yard right now and buy something made in the us… which I am sure I will now do. By the way your site looks great I am interested in the backpack may purchase it in the near future!

Got the Camo version tarp in a few days ago. Took 8 business days to get. Hope to set it up in the backyard tomorrow along with my older Gear Guide tarp to do a side by side comparison.
I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !
