Have just been trawling Gumtree and there's an Isabella Shadow 2.4m for sale for £75 ONO in Dudley/West Midlands - if anyone's interested? Looks very good in the photos - all poles, pegs, guy ropes and bag. (listed 3 days ago)

The one in Norfolk has been converted to three poles (as I did with mine). It's also £75. Says it's in very good condition... (listed 17 days ago)

Out of interest what did you do to convert to 3 poles

I bought a hole punch and former the same size as the outer holes (20mm), plus 50 (smallest quantity I could find!) eyelets in the same colour (brass) as the standard ones. Trimming Shop Group seemed to be a good, reliable supplier. Took 2 minutes to make the new hole in the inner part of the centre reinforcement patch. Simples...

Then I bought an extra pole - same size as the outer ones, plus another couple of genuine Isabella guy lines

I have lots of 20mm eyelets left if anyone wants any - for free! If you buy your own punch/die/former set, don't get the Vaduda kit on Ebay as it's not the right size for the eyelets!!!

Thank you, I bought a 3rd pole when I bought our Shadow so might give it a try
