I got my easy up at sams club...do you have them in philly? mine was under 200 with three sides. watch that though, some faires wont LET you use an easy up. also - three sides is nice, but FOUR is necessary for any kind of WEEKEND thing. there are some really nice wrought iron ones out there now...target, walmart super stores, and super Ks usually have them for under 100. zip on sides rule!!!
as far as I can tell yes. I know of one person who had issues with a not so sturdy setup that wasnt really cheep ironish looking, but when you pay 60 bucks for the 12 foot tent....you gotta expect that I guess.
It depends on the storm. At the different shows I've been to, some hold up, some don't. Remember the jeweler (whose name no one knows) across from us? His tent has held up well, though Reis (sp?)'s had broken the second weekend he used it at fair. The Elites seem to be sturdier than most from the reviews I've looked at. A little thicker on the steel, but also heavier. I have an ( I'm pretty sure it is) Eddie Bauer 10x10 that I bought in September that has been used once for the pirate show that I'd be willing to let you have for 100, It cost me 149. I'll look up the model number and send the description if you are interested.
