replacement fiberglass shock cord tent poles

Post by peacefulhuman » Sun Aug 01, 2010 3:49 pm

So I get my tent out today to test my proposed tent + shade structure set up, and two of my shock cord poles are broken.

I've seen many ads for replacement tent pole kits online, but I'm wondering if anyone knows of / recommends a place to walk in and purchase either a replacement kit or new poles. I figure REI probably has them, but I'm looking for the least expensive solution here...

Any info is appreciated - thanks!

If the tent is a REI brand then you should be able to get poles and/or tent replaced.

If not, you might try these folks in Berkeley,CA (next door to REI)

They do repairs.

I've had REI make replacement poles.
