I bought this stand brand new about 14 years ago.  It was used for a couple seasons, then in the attic for the past 11-12 years.  I was already over 50 yrs and starting to get a less stable.  We also hunt in very cold conditions with largest clothing and boots.  I opted for the larger Alpha models and other larger aluminums.  The stand never stayed out all year and was used only during the hunting season.  As you can see in the photos this stand is in very good condition, including the cables and hardware.  I would consider getting new straps, which go for about $12.99.  The Lone Wolf stands are, hands down, one of the quietest, strongest and durable that you can find.  The one piece cast aluminum is rock solid.  The new version of this model (D'Aquisto .75) sells for $599.  I absolutely love the Lone Wolf stands, I just needed a slightly bigger platform.  These cast aluminum stands last forever.  I have a lot of the larger models and just change straps and cables occasionally.  This lightweight stand is ideal for packing in longer distances.  Awesome feature is the platform leveling adjustment for trees that are not straight (see photos).  I just auctioned off the twin to this one and it went for $226.  These are hard to come by, so you can avoid the auction hassle and buy this one now!
