I am looking for advice on how to get the best package deal on a tent, footprint and carpet.

Specifically for a Vango Rhapsody airbeam tent.

I have seen members commenting on buying great package deals and would like to know how they go about it.

The tent itself is advertised at around £1500 which is a lot of money to us. So being able to get a deal could make the difference between buying one or not.

Thanks in advance.

Don't forget to leave a review of all tents you've used, for a chance to win fantastic prizes

New! Please upload a photo of your tent to the Tent Showcase!

Your biggest problem on this tent is if you hang about you will miss out. These top end poly cotton tents aren't produced in huge numbers. We will have it on display by next sat along with the Kampa Studland 8 which might be another poly cotton you might want to look at.
As for best package deal, definitely more inclined to offer a deal for customers in store as there is no delivery charge for us retailers.
