Default Swags

Hi guys,

Just thought i would put this up.
If anyone is in the market for a new swag well you cant go past Great Escape Camping in QLD.

I have just bought 2 Burke & Wills swags ( Coolibar ) for my 2 boys & delivered to my address in Melbourne they cost me $322.00 each plus $22.00 each for delivery. Once the order was placed,the swags where on my door step 2 days later.
Now that very same swag in Anoconda is $420.00 & thats with the 20%discount sale that they have at the moment.Once the sale is over that swag will go back to around $460 odd dollars.

Anyway for those that are keen to know more here is the web site www.greatescapecamping.com.au


Cheers Tim.

Yeah mate,the burke & wills are an awesome swag.

They are a bit pricey compared to some other brands,,but you do get what you pay for.

Cheers Tim.

Crimmo's right on the money. I've got a Sar Major King Single. 63mm mattress, is more comfortable than my normal bed. Go buy direct from factory, they will sell 'seconds'. Mine was about $400 (RRP over $600). Awesome to sleep in. Highly recommended. Mate also has one, slept in high country - snow/rain - stayed dry and toasty warm. Beware of the crap imports others are floggen off!

Definitely agree, beware of cheap ****, i bought "seconds" that are really first grade but they cant undercut their resellers so they have to call factory sales "seconds" if they are cheaper than their resellers. Cant recommend them higher, best quality product on the market, i did my research and i know of at least 6 happy customers that are close friends, and 1 of these has had the swag for over 25 years and it is still going strong

What are the southern cross prices like Truckster? Comparable to Burke and wills or more expensive?

I didnt realise they were just around the corner, might have to make an effort to get there next weekend.
