That’s a mighty spare discount…but if it gets someone to bite then they will have an amazing shelter.

That number is the total sold all time – not just today. Only a handful have been sold today (it was 73 early this morning and 75 now) because of the sparse discount. It’s $40 off, but when you factor in Zpacks has free shipping (vs paying $15) then it’s only a $25 discount, plus in many states Massdrop charges tax that Zpacks doesn’t, so it’s actually more expensive for a lot of folks.

FL residents are charged 6% sales tax on Zpacks gear which would be $35.95 on the current $599 price…if MassDrop does not charge FL residents sales tax, the deal may actually be best for them @ $60.95 total savings over ordering directly from Zpacks.
