Title: RE: [Market-farming] Canopy

Thanks everyone.  We are going to head over to Sam's today I think and see what they have.  From Lucy and Willie's comments, I think we will eliminate the Caravan. One problem that I see (only looking on-line for suppliers) is that you get the choice of Red, White, and Blue covers.  Just found this place, and the prices seem better than others I have looked at:

And thanks ddunbar, for that extra confirmation. ;-)

I agree that the cheap EZUps are less durable.  The ones with

fiberglass bows and low tops.  However, I believe SAMs has been selling

Express IIs for less than $200.  And, I have not seen any of the poorer

quality ones at SAMs.

Does anyone have a good source for replacement tops?  Especially custom

made ones with graphics on the valances?

My Caravan has a steel frame.  Aluminum is offered, but, since I was

not worried about the weight, I got steel thinking that it would be a

bit more durable.  After less than a year's use, the paint is flaking

off and it is rusting.
