As is mine...like when I returned my order this a.m. only to find out that by afternoon, everyone was being offered free shipping on the correct tarp and a $10 coupon. Looks like this early bird didn't get the worm.

For those of you contemplating the $10 coupon, to be on the safe side, ask if there is a minimum purchase required or no minimum.

The $10 coupon is for purchases of $99 or more, I believe. So you ain't missing much. I got a $10 coupon with the botched shipment, but I returned it under the assumption they would send me a new one.

They also sent me a free sample of Allegra allergy medication. I returned that also.

....I already used my Allegra Saturday when my shipment arrived. All the papers and magnitude of ads I tossed into the trash, should have mailed all of those back after I wiped my .....never mind

Just kidding! I didn't say it, so it's still within the "family friendliness boundaries"

I'm wondering why they have put me off till tomorrow on what they're going to do?? Of course all of my correspondence has been through emails. I gave up Monday morning after trying to call for over 2 hours. If I'm not offered the same as others, then I'll be calling.

It doesn't look like they are ripstop, anyone know how well they hold up?

Ok, Just got mine today. Here are some comparisons with the old 9x9 that has been unavailable for quite some time.

Old - 22.3 oz w/ stuff sack
New - 15.9 w/ stuff sack

Old - cat cut
New - Not cat cut, or so slight, it's not noticable

$99 lololololol yeah.... ok...

I found it so odd that they would send out samples of medication.

What's so odd....they sent allergy meds. Heck, I'm a long time customer and I'm allergic to them now.

I also ordered two 12x12 last week and they should be on the doorstep today. My normal excitement for the arrival of new gear has been replaced with dread knowing that I'll have to make a phone call and send them back

. Does anyone that received the 16x16 have an approx wt on it? That will determine wheather I exchange these for the next size up or just return them for a full refund.

I have the old 9x9 and the new "12x12" in the pics above. Judging by the difference in the weight of those, I would guess the new "16x16" would weigh 21.4 oz based on the old 12x12 being 30 oz. These seem to be a different fabric than the old ones.
