They took a LW hand climber, put a dollar camo paint job on it, and mark it up $130 over the price of their non painted one. And they still give a crappy set of unpadded straps to carry the stand. Where do I sign up for one of these??
You know there is a heck of a lot of markup on these, as many of us this winter bought brand new Lone Wolf Hand climbers from Reeds Sporting Goods, shipped to our door, for $230!!! Now, they spray paint some camo on the same exact stand, call it the pro series, and are wanting $500!!!??
Here they are:
