I bought this bag about a month ago for a trip to Canada which is now not going ahead. I was going to keep a hold of it "just in case" but, to be honest, its too high spec for anything I may now use it for. Its unused, comes complete with the tags still on the zipper, a stuff sack and a storage sack. Its size regular and I paid £365.98 including postage from Ultralight Outdoor Gear in Billingham. Im looking for £290 including Royal Mail Special Delivery. UOG website has all the technical spec regarding temp ratings etc. Payment by Paypal gift please. My e-mail is Doogster at hotmail dot co dot uk. Cheers.

I knew they'd start popping up on the market as soon as i buy one!

Regarding Paypal gifts, are they actually free, or is some urban legend? I sent one between my 2 Paypal accounts (as a gift!) and got slapped for about 3% - though i could choose whether sender or receiver paid it. I can't imagine eBay or Paypal doing anything for free...

Go on, be a devil! Its only money and if governments can squander it by the ton, then so too can we

. A moment of madness is a rare and splendid thing......

I agree Michael, fantastic quality. No bids as yet but quite a few watchers "hovering"

, Im fairly confident someone will snap it up, but, if it doesnt sell Im happy to hang on to it and, who knows, I might even get round to using it

Lol, one of those watchers is me - sorry! Am curious to see if/how much it goes for!
To make up for that, i've got a bid sitting on the mitts

I know they're not even remotely comparable, but my old SkyeHigh 1000 is the bouncing bomb by comparison - and the loft is on another level altogether.

Good luck with the sale.

Thanks and good luck with the mitts

, I, too, was amazed by the WM ability to loft. I have a PHD bag of a few years vintage, similar rating, but the design and quality of the WM is, in my opinion, far superior. Maybe no bids isnt a bad thing.............
