Rooftop tent pricing?

Post by jan30 »

Hey guys
I am thinking of starting a Rooftop tent business :wth: :wth:
I am hoping you guys can give me some indications of what the pices for them are and what will be a reasonable price to sell them for? :shock: :shock:
I am trying to see if i can bring the two together so i can get a good foothold in the market.

thanks in advance :thumbup: :thumbup:

Ons gaan hulle self bou :thumbup: so vir die manne wat sekere wysigings gaan soek sal ook gehelp kan word. Ek dink die beste is om eerste te begin met ripstop en dan te upgrade na Canvas. (canvas rente sal natuurlik duurder wees a.g.v. die materiaal wat duurder is.) :think:

Ons beplan ook om die tent te maak met die nodige fittings om net clipon bybehore te kan koop, om die tent te veleng na die grond to of 'n awning by te sit afhangende wat die persoon soek. :eh: :eh:

Ons eerste tent behoort so volgende week klaar te wees dan sal ek vir julle 'n paar fotos oplaai. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Traveler ons het gedink om te probeer om die tent vir so R5500 in die mark te sit. Hopenlik kan dit 'n paar meer sakke pas :thumbup: :thumbup: ( ons moet nog kosting doen om te sien of ons kan maar lyk half moontlik)
