I’m helping a neighbor out selling his tent.
Backstory: In the early 90s, he traded gear with a friend and ended up with a tent. He took it camping one night and the waterproofing failed. So he wrote to The North Face, and they told him the model was discontinued, but instead sent him a brand new VE-24/25. He has the original packing slip from The North Face (when they were in Berkeley, CA) dated 9/15/1992. Original instructions and marketing material included.
He took the tent out maybe 2 times since 1992. This thing is in pristine condition. I helped him set it up and took a few photos. This was the first geodesic backpacking tent - 4 season, 3-4 person tent. There are no stains, rips or tears – only one grommet missing on a strap (see photo). Tent is freestanding, has grommeted flaps on the rainfly for guylines, but none attached. He has all the original accessories, and it's been kept clean and stored well.
This tent is an absolute gem, and would love to see it used to the fullest and longest life it has! If you have any further questions, I can certainly relay it for answering
Price: $365 + shipping
Will estimate shipping cost based on location. Tent is in Wisconsin.
