I have purchased directly from Gathre and like their products. I was looking at their climbing items, but they were a bit more expensive than I wanted to pay. I was pleasantly surprised to find these items at Sam's Club and for an even better price than from the original company. One of these pieces is selling for $170 alone. I was skeptical this was a fake listing or was some like miniature item, but these are authentic. Immensely pleased!
