Hi folks
I'm looking at getting rid of my aqualite as I've stopped night fishing
But have no idea what kind of price to look for
All tapes are immaculate and it's not sun faded at all no rips all peg points are spot on
Any ideas please lads

Is it the Red Union Jack one that was made at the Chorley Factory?

Get it on eBay, think you will be surprised what you will get for it being truly British made - demand has gone through the roof with all the backlash against all the stupidly over-priced Chinese made junk

~ I'd take it off your hands, but it's a British made Brolly I'm after.

great bivvy had a few over the years, they are super light weight and 2 rib so goes up very easily, I reckon you'll get between £70-£100

Obv without tension bars ad groudsheet you may lose out but id guess it will be brought by someone who has one already and wants a bad up

PS the wraps are like hens teeth if you can get one of them then you are looking at £200+ with a full set but the funny thing is they were terrible and would fy off in any sort of wind

Biffta how much do you want for it mate?. I am in the West Midlands but with the Coronavirus it would need posting if you drop me a pm and it's in my budget I will take it off your hands 👍🏼

Really Great bivvies until the poles go crack - which mine did. I replaced teh pole at great cost and got shut.

Great bivvy but preferred the Chub Trilite as it had a 3rd pole for a peak......

Can always send it to army Andy for replacement poles or if I can be bothered do it myself. I ain't too bothered about a peak and certainly not a wrap. Bit more coverage than a brolly is what I am after.
