Posted by Nick Niesen on October 27th, 2010

As a novice to camping in the great outdoors you may be tempted to buy no-name brand camping equipment, which is OK in the beginning. However, you will learn fast, that cheap camping equipment does not make a Happy Camper. As in all things cheap, it usually breaks, or wears out far to soon. Once you?ve been camping a few times and have decided that camping is right for your lifestyle, then you will want to buy quality camping equipment built for the long term. There is no substitute for quality camping equipment folks!

I will share with you, in this article, how to buy high quality name brand camping gear at half price, or less. As an avid Outdoorsman I have purchased a lot of Outdoor Gear in my life. I use to buy all my camping gear from Mail Order Magazines, and many times I paid full price for the camping equipment that I bought. One day while researching outdoor survival techniques on the Internet, I stumbled across and Ebay Auction where they were selling water purification equipment for Backpackers. I decided to search on Ebay for camping equipment, and my life changed from that day on. On that day I registered with Ebay Auctions, and since then I have bought many outdoor related items, and have save an absolute bundle on all my Outdoor Gear.

When buying Ebay Camping Gear you will want to do a few searches to find the exact camping gear that you want to buy or bid on. You can also use the Category List to go direct to the Camping Equipment Category. You must be cautious and read each auction carefully to find out if there are any defects with the Camping Equipment you want to bid on. Ebay Camping Gear is a great way to buy used camping gear as well as outdoor gear in general. Since I do lots of camping, I spend most of my time reading through the Ebay Camping Gear auctions a few times each week. There are also some great deals on new Camping Gear that are either close outs or maybe scratched, or may even have a dent, which does not affect the function, but only the looks. Simply put, there are many reasons for sellers to sell their used gear, which gives you and I an excellent opportunity to buy camping gear cheap!

I have won several Ebay Auctions for things such as a name brand propane camping stove with three burners, and it was only used by the previous owner one time, and was still in the original box. You can find great deals for less than half the retail price in the Department Stores, simply because the camping gear was lightly used.

The best deal I bid on and won at Ebay Auctions, was an expensive three room, name brand, camping tent, and I bought it for only pennies on the dollar because the seller had bought a popup camper, and no longer needed the tent, he simply needed the money to help pay for the new camper. You just never know what kind of great deals you will find on Ebay Camping Gear.

Since I have been buying my Outdoor Gear on Ebay Auctions I like to check out the retail prices in the stores such as Wal-Mart and K-Mart, so I will have a better idea of what camping equipment prices are running at the local stores. I also check on the Internet for camping equipment at the Online Camping Gear Stores, in order to see what prices they offer on their name brand items. After all a deal is not a deal if you pay to much, right!
