if you need a lot of down, like i will shortly, and don't mind the extra weight, this beats thru-hiker by quite a bit. I am planning a 5deg down quilt, a 45deg quilt and maybe some down booties and a down hat. If i buy two pounds of down, it ends up at $5 an oz, thru-hiker's is $10. Admittedly, if you buy their quilt kit, its not as expensive, but for a 5deg quilt, i could go with thru-hiker and save 2oz, or with this site, and save $40, which makes sense to me (college student).
