    What I am curious about is how your pricing came to be?

    Sorry to call you out in a post, but, I see your tarp is just a hex tarp, and one can purchase a much larger tarp (one with doors) for the same price as yours! So what makes yours different/worth it for me to purchase!

    I am interested, so don't take this the wrong way, I just am weighing the size/cost/materials/construction thing and comparing all vendors so I can feel satisfied about my very expensive purchase!

    If you like you can PM me, or if the Mod's feel this should be done via PM then please notify me and delete this post as I am not trying to start anything!

    The MLD tarp ( here ) is $290, has been for a while.

    I think the thing is that Adam's at $309 and a larger size is a great buy. How he can feed his brood on the margins he's got making gear, I dunno.

    There is also Z-Packs, as well as OES! Now I understand that Brian hasn't listed his, but, if you call him that is a whole other story, as that is how others including myself have acquired one!
    Also if you look at the dimension's that the other tarps are, the shear size alone (which would amount to in my eye's/mind cost more in fabric) would be a reason to say that they should cost more, much more, given the cost of materials?? I also completely understand the difference in the time as well as materials it takes to bond vs sew the ridge, and tie out's used/method of attachment, but that to me is minor compared to the materials cost itself, but I guess if you were to factor all of it in??????
    At least that is how I am interpreting it which was the reason that I posted that, you get a larger tarp at the same price(or very, very close to it)! Now I could be interpreting it wrong, as I frequently do that! I'm not jumping on ya Grizz, just explaining!!!
