Whoops, slightly different shape. So this one then.

All these questions really hit home in terms of what your use scenario is. I have a coffee press on my stove so I make my coffee and pour it into a mug. If I had to heat it in the mug I would need metal with a handle for sure. I have a cheap GSI mug and it weighs next to nothing. I also paid nothing for it. Here it is on Amazon. GSI-Mug I also have a titanium mug, very light, but it also doesn't retain heat very well. My coffee gets cold so that thing now sits in storage.
weight: 3.5 oz.
I have a 750 (if you’re not set on the 650). Let me know if you’d be interested in making an offer.

Check out Amazon. 208$ for a “used - very good” x-mid 1p. It’s on Prime.
Usually disappear within a few hours so be quick!
Drop moved their outdoor gear to Amazon - the DD 40L is still being sold there, and it's in stock both new and used.

If you’re WANTING a zlite for cheaper.. $15 at Sierra Trading Post
Or, a generic-ish air pad on Amazon is about $26, 14.5oz. No listed R value on this particular one, but others of the same style claim around R1.5. That’s probably about right.
If I were you I’d consider buying the granite gear (no personal experience but I’ve heard good things about it) on amazon now. There are free returns so if you’re not able to figure something out on the second hand market you still have the bag.

Good luck!
FYI, CMT is now making "lightweight carbon trekking poles" that they claim are <12 oz for the pair: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086R8FM6Q/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
As an owner of alpha socks, I prefer these anytime it's below about 40 deg F:

I'm a US 10.5 or 11 and size large is perfect.
it’s literally $15 cheaper new on Amazon with free shipping
I have a river country trekking pole tent without poles i am looking to sell. I have used it once and it is in brand new condition! I camped with myself, my dog and my pack comfortably, but two people would be a stretch. It is very light, nicely water proof and very small. Hit me up if this sounds like what you want!
Hi,
You can buy my 30x76" insulated pad if you want. I sell them at my online store, Amazon.com. Here is a link to buy it. Right around your price range too.

We have these and they are great and sturdy. They’re different from many chairs of the style due to the square base/ 4 junctions instead of 2.. They pack up pretty small. I have not used them for backpacking but camping and festivals:
MOON LENCE Backpacking Chair... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0871YLCWV?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Just a little over $20 on Amazon. Just like the chair zero.

They are about 34g for each 100cm tube, so once you cut the two sides down probably ~34g total, maybe drops an ounce from the aluminum stays

Forgot to mention that the stuff sack for the SMD had a rip at the top when I got it. I patched it and sewed it and haven't had an issue since.
I have a double rainbow with the carbon pole available if you are still looking. It is used but in good shape. I got it used on the BPL gear swap and have spent about 5 nights in it. There is a small hole in the stuff sack.

Asking $200 shipped CONUS.

I got a M R1 hoody, black. Zips up straight, not to the side. Pics here: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/394692487822826 message me if you're interested
Looks like the saws retail for between $3.00-$5.00 per piece? Haven't seen them in-stock, but they're listed on plenty of websites. I've not gone down the rabbit hole of the YT reviews yet...:)
Also, looks like there is a 5 pack of the razors here for $7.60., so $1.52+tax per unit.
I setup an alert on https://visualping.io for the GG 1/8". it sent me an email when the GG page changed (showing it was available) and I ordered immediately. within a couple hours, it was sold out again. you may want to try that as they're showing up regularly as they get them in stock.
I really like an affordable down puffy I found on Amazon from zShow. I think it was this one:

@Ztariarvais can I make a suggestion for you to try things out? Building this should take less than 30 minutes.
Go to your local Home Depot or Lowe’s and buy the following: 1. a Sliding Glass Door winter air sealing sheet (aka Polyiso/Polycryo) for about $9, 2. a handful of large diameter washers (1.5” outer size, with an inner hole the size of your trekking poles’ tips), -I’d do at least 8 washers and 3. Buy some strong, clear shipping tape. (Or Tenacious Tape if you want to be super confident)
Then place the washers on the sheet at the four corners and 4 mid points.
Then place a roughly 8” piece of tape on each washer, folded at the halfway point so that it tapes on both sides of the sheet.
Then punch a hole in each washer midpoint to use as a guy line point for your guy line.
String your guy lines with either spear fishing cordage or some 1.75mm cord like this stuff on Amazon: HMWPE Tent Guyline https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096Z73GTH
You should be able to achieve an amazing tarp suitable for both laying on the ground AND useable for pitching structures that hits about any SUL weight standard.
If you’re looking at new options, these are ones I always recommend to folks, especially if they want aluminum (little less breakable than carbon) without too much weight. They’re 7.9 ozs each & $33 a pair new. Sometimes the price drops a bit if you keep an eye on the Amazon price watcher CamelCamelCamel KINGGEAR Trekking Poles https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08X1W5JGC/[Kinggear](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08X1W5JGC/)
Thanks. Shipping can be quite reasonable as stakes are so slight, but depends on exact location.
You might not like the price of the epoxy either. 3M 2216 two-part epoxy 2216
You can get BNIB for just a bit more than you want to spend on used if you're OK with black. Price fluctuates, I paid $250 for the same thing back in December, so you may want to watch it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CR8D2DW
A bit above the budget and it needs trekking poles, but it's a solid design, great in weather if pitched well, double wall 2p tent.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B085NLS1LN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_YRRP3BYYAWPASB7YT019
There are 500 ml bottles (16.9 oz), but yeah they might be hard to find individually. https://www.amazon.com/DASANI-Purified-Bottles-Enhanced-Minerals/dp/B000T9SZOU
If you need width, this one on Amazon is 22in wide instead of your standard 20in.
I bought an alcohol stove and eventually moved to an esbit for $15. The fuel tabs are 0.5oz each and make cooking during an overnight super easy. I bring my canister stove for multi days still
Esbit 11.5g (0.4 Ounce) Ultralight Folding Titanium Stove for Use with Solid Fuel Tablets https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002AQET2C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_0MJKW07236FT7JD6DCEB?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
You know theyre $220 new right?

Sorry, but what are you doing here? There are tons of places to buy this stuff, go to Home Depot for Tyvek or grab some polycro from Amazon.
not that large, but I use this for multi-function 9.1oz... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B089CPTCHH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Taoks has some that are very similar. The spoon is a bit smaller, and sharp too. The spoon part is fully polished on these. Its like they just ripped off the rei design.

Though I prefer a hammock now, my first sub 3lb tent, just north of 2 actually, was this guy from Amazon. I still consider it one of the best tents I own. At under $50 it’s an incredible value. It’s got free returns, so you might give it a whirl; it’s beaten the tar out tents 6 times its price in my experiences. River Country Products Trekker Tent 2, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SD6TQ34
If you want to go even lighter there’s a version with no integrated fly for around $35 and you can MYOG a rain fly from a polyolefin “Frost King” sheet from Home Depot using simple taped metal washers for fly rig corners.
If you can't find a sol, check out the BRS Titanium stove and the Olicamp XTS pot. The BRS fits within the bottom of the pot, and It performs slightly better then my jetboil flash, in ideal conditions. This setup weighs about 8oz.
I have about half of a Multimat (https://www.amazon.com/multimat-Trekker-Thermal-Foil-Foam-x/dp/B0124XMBZC) that you can have for the price of shipping, though fair warning I think the price of shipping might be more than the price on Amazon.
You can get for $78 on Amazon right now, also shipped free if you have Prime, and super easy to return at Kohl's if you don't like.

Used this one this summer, was good down to about 50.
How big is she? If she's not super tall (maybe 5'10" and under), the Aegis Max Wind Hard Tiny quilt is a killer budget option.
If you're looking for something smaller I'm going to sell my Ultraspire Revolt. Only used a couple of nights. It's fantastic but I need something bigger.
https://www.amazon.com/Ultraspire-Revolt-UltraFlask-Bottle-Included/dp/B07JJX1GFM
Saw this last night. May do it. It’s over my budget, but gets me the idea if I want to spend 300 on a nice one
onewind Topquilt Camping Quilt Hammock Sleeping Un-Bag 45-60 Degree- Ultralight Nylon Insulation Quilt for Backpack Outdoor Explorer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YTH2TS3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_oESsFb3JH9WNE
I have one of these Salomon ADV Skin 5 in size small https://www.amazon.com/Salomon-Skin-Hawaiian-Surf-Night/dp/B078J991PK
used in good condition, no rips or tears. includes the thermal cooler thingy for keeping your reservoir water cold. awesome vest but I needed an XS.
I am in East Bay and have this stove. If interested, you can pick it up, then drop off or mail back when done.
Not the lightest out there, but i have the ALPS Mountaineering Mystique 2 and I'm happy with it. I'm 6'3" and there's plenty of room for me and my girlfriend. You can get it to about 4.5 pounds carried weight.
On sale at Amazon for $163 (https://www.amazon.com/ALPS-Mountaineering-Mystique-2-Person-Tent/dp/B0842RPTK6/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=alps+mountaineering+mystique+2-person&qid=1598645487&sr=8-2)
I've used this pack from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0151EFF3G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It might not be everything you're looking for, but it's hard to beat the price.
I also found this on Amazon just over a pound and someone in the review section modded it with button snaps to make a footbox: https://smile.amazon.com/Horizon-Hound-Down-Camping-Blanket/dp/B079TMMKND
Doesn't look bad for $65 down to 50°.
Found these on Amazon
Genuine Merino Wool and Possumdown Blended Gloves | UNISEX | Comfy, Light, and Quick-Drying (Black Large 1ea) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YBYCD9Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_IsmqEbV0B7VXZ
I don't have anything for sale currently, but the GG Murmur is back in stock for $160. Weighs close to nothing. Mine is 348 grams with the hip belt on and the sit pad/frame in. It fits me really well at 6'2" with the hip belt on the lower attachment point, but there's a higher one to shorten the torso length of the pack.
if you're looking to try out a nice facsimile of a super ultralight frameless for super ultra cheap, I can't recommend this thing highly enough. Take a razor to the stuff pouch and it'll weigh in at around 500 grams - straps are pretty long on it too, you can trim them down. If you're feeling adventurous you can cut the brain down too and likely get it to more like 400 grams. There's a bladder pouch inside that fits a zseat folded in half and works the same way a GG sit pad frame does. I've loaded up around 16 lbs total into one of those and literally run up mountains. At 6'2" it's a hair too small for me, but at 5'11" I think it would fit you like a glove. For $23 it's an easy experiment.
You could go Cascade Mountain Tech for $45. Great carbon fiber poles with cork grips, and you would have two of them. There available on amazon prime Here
I've got a Dragontail package for $80 +shipping.
Will have everything in that package plus some other stuff like extra level line and a few more flies to get ya going.
