Just bought a new tipi

[Mike Vines]

Prices are all on the Seekoutside website.  Just click on the product to want and scroll down.  Click on the buy now tab to get pricing.  

I can say that the price is relative, and is in the middle of the road (price wise) when comparing all the different tipies out there.  And if you were just going by information available online, Seekoutside is tops in quality.  Only time will tell.  If you want good quality, you have to pay for it.  

I looked at it from the prospective of buyin a new longbow.  I could make one, and it might shoot OK, but I could buy an awesome custom one and have the quality be second to none.  I opted not to make my own tipi for obvious reasons, and I wasn't about to spend $200 on a Sportsmen's Guide one and be completely unhappy.

Good seeing you today. Hope the storm was easy on all of you at Land O Lakes. I ran into quite a storm headed home. I had actually bumped into that website looking for a titanium stove. I am very eager to see yours in action and hear what you think of it. Did you see the rollup SS stove? That is certainly a new twist! Like you, I have been looking at the Kifaru 8 man for a long time but have not be able to bring myself to cough up the money. Your kids are going to love it!

I have a coulpe kifarus, and love them....however, these guys have done it up right.  The extra screen standard would have been a huge selling point for my wife!

Yes Steve, it was nice runnin into to you as well.  As for the storm, we got hammered with rain but little if any wind.  We did luck out and that would of been a good storm to check the watertightness of the tipi.  

I did see the rollup SS one, but saw a few video reviews on both and talked with a couple guys who each had one or the other and opted for the titanium one.  

I know that comparing the 2 is like comparin apples to oranges (same product only different, I that makes sence) the Seekoutside is right about $500 less than the Kifaru if you bought an 8 man tipi, liner and large stove.
