Just saw this. It's at the outlet.
Here's the link:

I just noticed that the ultralight travel hammock is 50 % off too.

Sep 29, 2011 at 8:08 am #1784759REI is fudging the "retail" on the "ultralight"
that is not the ultralight model.. but it IS the single parachute nylon model.. and retail is ONLY $49.99 NOT the $59.99 that REI is claiming..http://store.grandtrunkgoods.com/hammocks
the "ultralight travel hammock" is not picture and REI has misquoted the name here, because that model is $20 (and less, depending)
still, despite the (willful?) typo it is still a decent price. just make sure to get a better suspension. the biners given with these hammocks weigh more than you'll want so I suggest a new suspension. whoopie slings are a great option.

Sep 29, 2011 at 12:06 pm #1784853Oct 1, 2011 at 12:14 am #1785432be welcome, bro. im not exposing REI as crooks or price gougers, I'm just showing what expected retail vs. REI website claims have a disagreement on.
my personal opinion? get a Warbonnet Traveler and feel good about it. that's all!
if you've gotten this far in your search for a better sleep, i will humbly congratulate you for climbing out of the (tent) box.
