REI used to be better, back when they had their lifetime warranty, but it's still a good place when something is clearanced or with these coupons.
Edit: Fixed the dates. Thanks virtualbeas

I own the Quarter Dome SL 2 tent and it's an amazing tent at the price per weight.
Ended up just buying some silks and pants for my upcoming backpack next month. Also bought my daughter the 24" REV bike -- hope it doesn't suck.

Now it's probably the same level as some of the midrange Amazon Chinese offerings -- not bad for the price. Good for short and moderate weather backpacking.
They also stripped the stores of just so much backpacking gear. There was a period where there were no water bladders or backpacking kitchen/cookware at my local store. I don't blame them -- it makes sense to chase the wallets of a customer base that is becoming less outdoorsy.
This sale I stocked up on some running socks, and got two of their Camp X Chair.
This time it seems like there's only the Outlet coupon.
One thing that the 20% off regular price coupon is good for, is on items that aren't normally discounted from other vendors, or on Amazon.
For example, a couple of years ago, I used my coupon on a Benchmade Anonimous knife, which is fairly pricey. The total savings was north of $50. I had never seen that item dip below the retail price before, so it turned out to be a good deal.
But this time there's no coupon applicable towards a regularly priced item. I hope this isn't the way they do it going forward.

However REI has the best warranty in the world for camping gear for heavy users. I had a 10-year-old Northface Rock 22 tent that I paid 250.00 plus for. I used it about 40 nights a year so say 400 uses.
It started to separate at a seam. I took it to the store and was just wanting to get it repaired. I walked out with a brand-new Homestead 2 tent. Basically todays version of the same tent.
So yes everything is retail and you buy it on sale at 20-25 percent off retail at certain times of the year plus your dividend of about 10%. If you are buying something that is used often and needs to be good quality and reliable REI has its place.
On certain things the throw away things are worth it on others like tents, Sleeping Bags etc they are not IMHO.
By the way Northface would have repaired the tent for the cost of shipping it to them and waiting till they could fix it.
