    Cheapest place to get Arc'teryx Sidewinder SV shell?

    Looking for Arc'teryx Sidewinder SV hardshell. Best price so far is $398 at backcountry. Looking to go cheaper if possible...preferably from someone else/ebay etc. Anyone know about the deal with the outlet store in Vancouver...when do those major sales start and do they take phone orders?

    My Marmot of 6yrs now has had enough. Time to move on.

    Not exactly what you're looking for, but STP has the Arcteryx Javelin SV for $299ish:

    I have this jacket (bought it at STP). Search for coupon codes, you can usually knock off another 10-20% or so, and maybe get free shipping too.

    They're $ 320 at the Arcteryx seconds store. Not a bargain price by any means.

    If I see a deal I'll post it as a PSA>

    I suggest call some ski shops and see if they have any leftovers in your size. I saw some at a store on the killington access road not too long ago and they were below $300.

    L or XL... maybe a Large since I've heard this model runs large/baggy. You perhaps have something for me?

    I'm 6'4, 200, 44" chest, lean with long arms, like snug fitting gear. Won't be able to try-before buy...unless Mammoth has some in shops this weekend when I'm up.

    Why not PM powstash for a 10% off discount code and get it from www.backcountry.com or www.tramdock.com?

    Ebay has been pretty bad wrt to this jacket. All $320+... cheaper at the stores almost.

    Can't believe I missed out on steepandcheap.

    Going to try and wait around for that $200-250 deal. No rush, but want to start looking now before stock runs low end of summer. I'll keep that in mind. Tx.

    I'd sell my XL Sidewinder AR if you wanna make an offer.
    That's me with the jacket below. I'm 6'4", 210, 35-36 inch sleeve length on dress shirts. Fits a bit roomy in the middle but would rather have sleeve length. Your call though
