Try go outdoors as they are the suppliers of hi gear tents

Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again
And then you have to work out the correct length too long and you will put undue stress the fabric too short and you will have a saggy tent. Even at £14.99 a set fro Amazon you will probably need 6 to 8 sets as they are only 3.25m long

Please read the fault description on each tent carefully as some DO NOT HAVE POLES!! Alchemist is frequently mentioned in threads here, and as long as you bear in mind the item has been returned for some reason you are unlikely to be disappointed. As with all auction sites sometimes you just need to get lucky with who else is after the same as you.
If you do decide to buy your own poles and re-elasticate there are some very useful videos on youtube - even clumsy old me managed to cut and replace a broken section. this is just one example.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nR-X4IGjK0o
I would also measure exactly how long each section is on a display V6 at Go to make sure all the ferrules are in the right places. Once you have got the hang of it you should be able to do the entire set in one night.
It's a bit of hard work, but you will get a tremendous amount of satisfaction when you finally get to use your new tent.
Good luck!!

Go to the VANGO site directly, they sell a 12.7 replacement set for 8-10 quid.
For the v6 you have to bear in mind that you'll need the Rear Poles x 2, the two Large Cross-overs that form the Dome, and the Front Pole.
I have a feeling that the Cross over might be more than 12.7mm though, and probably longer than 3.25 m
If you find a member on her called Dave Addy, then he'll probably know the exact lengths as he used to be a GO tent person, and is a font of useful Voyager 6 info.
I would like to know where on the Vango site you can buy anything Vango only sell through their retailer network please post a link
