FWIW - The tents Luis is selling are the bottom of the barrel remnants of the first run CTTs. They had problems (broken ladders/bad welds etc.) and were held because they were supposed to be unsellable. Apparently, the factory in China sent some "good" demos for Mel to check out, then sent a shipment of crap tents. Mel goes to China now to inspect the tents at random to catch any problems before they get shipped over here. For $155 it still might be worth taking a chance though.
