Hope they go well for you Jim! We've had a large variety of camp chairs over the past decade. They all seem to last no more than 2 years before disintegrating, even the supposed good quality, expensive ones.
Which reminds me, we need new camp chairs for our next trip, the ones we bought last year are falling apart. LOL.
Anaconda are a weird lot. You join the Anaconda Club & get no discount on anything, they just send you junk mail telling you when there's a Sale on (which is pretty much all the time). LOL. BCF & Rays Outdoors (owned by the same mob) actually give you a members discount on items.
Mind you, we've bought camp chairs from Anaconda, BCF, Rays Outdoors & Aussie Dispoasls. They've all lasted about the same time before being thrown in the dump master. LOL.
Happy travels & comfortable sitting. LOL.

Hi Keith,

I tend to agree with you.

The minute they start to fall apart, we will be taking em back for replacements.

The bloody dockets allways have that magic ink/ carbon that self destructs.

By photo copying Every thing we buy, we now have a record. staple the original docket to the photo copy. They simply punch in the bar code number at the register and up comes the sale date, and off we go with a replacement .

I intent to carry a portfolio of receipts of every thing on our trips away, to save us shelling out extra money for no good reason.

It may seem petty, but at the end of two years it certainly adds up to many $$$$$$$$$$$$$. Better off in our pockets then theirs. As we will be self funded retireies for many years to come.

Its a throw away society these days and I ante throwing away our hard earned coin.

Regards Jim

Receipts..........I started to photo copy them years ago after they became self destructing but the mission was impossible so started scanning, mission impossible also SO now I take a photo with my phone and store that. Less space needed and I can show the pic, email it or print off. Mission possible.

If you join Anaconda's club you don't even need to keep your receipts as they have a record of your purchase history on file they can access from the register. Same goes for BCF, SuperCheap Auto etc.

Hey Jim


 What took you so long? We got those two yrs back & still like new, Yes they have been used & used well. Problem at the moment is its too cold & wet to sit out doors.

We photo rec, store them on pc & hard drive. Think they use the invisable ink so there is no come back.

Love my HH chair to, and I wondered how the receipts today were ever allowed to become legal.  I still have a Charlie Carters supermarket receipt dated 1984  in a old leather satchel bag and still every item purchased on that receipt  is seen perfectly today  as it was then.  Never needed to copy the receipts then, so much for progress....  Kisha

Kisha, I'm amazed they allow those receipts. We ran a business for many years and the tax department requires you to keep all records for 5 years. What a joke, when you bought anything from a normal shop they faced within 2 years, if the employees left the receipts in the vans they faded within 3 days.
