go to www.sierratradingpost.com and in the upper left click on Specialty Sports Gear and Apparel. Then on the bottom right click on Hunting and Fishing Apparel. On page three they have the Omni Widgeon by Columbia for $99.99 (CABELAS has it for $249.95) below that is the Duck Club Widgeon @ $79.95 (CABELAS has it for $129.95). The Omni is the one I bought and thought it was $89.99 my bad. Really nice coat with zip out liner, full hood, waist length. One hell of a buy I think. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Not sure how they do it but I sure don't mind saving that much on something I was going to buy anyway.

They buy odd lots, discontinued stuff and closeouts directly from the manufacturers. Sierra Trading Post is VERY well known among Scoutmasters and in the backpacking community for great deals on "last years models" in tents, stoves and backpacks. If you want to hike the appalachian trail or climb Mt. Ranier on a budget and you don't care if all your Gore Tex matches, STP will hook you up. They have been getting more hunting and fishing stuff in the last few years. The guy who owns it is a big time Christian, as you will find out if you ever happen to get him on the phone. They are good people to deal with.

I just ordered one of those Duck Club Columbia coats for my son on their site...for a deal. He'll be pumped up, since last year he wore one of my old beat up ones with the sleeves turned up.

Glad to hear the people at Sierra are good folks....I'll buy more from them.
