hi wildwanderer, the sale of the quilts are going quite well but thanks for the extra input. They are really light weight and I converted mine into a full quilt by adding some extra baffles to the end with leftover material, unstitching the horizontal seams and adding 320g of 800fp duck down from the Feather Factory. It comes in at 460g including zips, pad attachments and snaps and I think it could probably be rated to -3 degrees (I am yet to test it at those temps) The fabric is great, although a little slippery, which is a common complaint I read. But I found if you strap it to you pad, it stays in place fairly well.
I have been in contact with Costco AU to find out when they will be relisting them and they explained they have no plans to bring them to AU again which is such a shame. I hope they change their mind so local aussies can get their hands on them other than thru me. It costs a fortune to bring them over due to the bulk,the exchange rate and duties.
