Rewards Program Terms and Conditions
Last updated January 1st, 2020
Opting-in to Moosejaw Rewards:
All users must accept these terms and conditions and create an account with Moosejaw to opt-in to the program and earn, accrue, retain and redeem Moosejaw Reward Dollars (MJ$). The program is FREE to join and membership is ongoing until or unless the user requests to be removed or is removed due to abuse of the program. Users can opt-in to the program while checking out on Moosejaw.com or at one of our stores or at any time within 30 days of purchase to accrue the MJ$ earned on that purchase. Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the “Opt out Rewards Program” link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.

Special order items take longer to ship
We want to make extra-sure you realize that you've added a special order item to your cart. These items take a little longer to get to you because we have to order from the manufacturer first. The "Est. Ship Date" is the date we expect items to leave our warehouse... so add your chosen shipping speed to see when it will show up at your door.

The MSR Elixir 3 Tent is a backpacking tent with plenty of space for 3 hikers. You should probably tent with people you know, not with some randoms on the trail. Either way, there are 2 spacious doors to get in and out of, plus 2 vestibules when the rainfly is up to tuck a pile of shoes or your packs under. The footprint is included, so you can even choose to go Fast & Light (rainfly, poles and footprint only).

MSR Elixir 3I have had my Elixir 3 for 4 years. Used < 20 nights. I received the first good solid rain since I had the tent and it leaks like a sieve. The tent has been well cared for. Spent hours replacing sealing tape which was degrading plus other attempts to get the tent and fabric to seal with limited results. This tent is a fail on 1 of the 2 things it must do.
Very disappointed.

Tent poles break at joint way to easily.I love MSR products but the tent pole system on this tent is a really poor design. I am not a novice camper/tent setter upper and I’ve NEVER broken a tent pole before. This tent has two joints where the two poles are locked together and creates a really weak spot for the tent poles. I was following the set up instructions and the pole piece that slides through the joint and then into the other end of the next pole segment snaps off right at the joint. It’s happened twice now and I was even being extra careful this second time because I saw how easy it happened the first time. I would never buy this tent again because of that pole set up. Because it’s at a joint you can’t repair it either. The little repair sleeves can’t pass over the break.
Hopefully MSR will send me a new pole segment so I can try to repair it (again).
Otherwise the tent itself is great and I would give it 5 stars. But make sure you bring a big roll of duct tape if you plan to use these poles.

Disappointing Rain FlyAs others have written here, I'm very disappointed with the rain fly of the Elixir 3. I've had my tent for 6 years, and this year I noticed that the seam tape on the fly was flaking and cracking on all seams. A short rainfall while out camping confirmed that the the tent was no longer waterproof. I have always stored my tent clean and dry, and it's very disappointing to have what appears to be an excellent tent break down so quickly with its rain fly. I have since removed all of the flaking tape and resealed the seams with a quality sealant, but to my surprise the fly still leaks. I do not recommend buying an Elixir 3. I have had many tents over the years, but I've never had one that broke down so quickly.

Rainfly is useless...so the tent is useless.I ordered a MSR Elixir 3 tent May 3, 2017. I assembled it in my yard when I first purchased it and again in 2020. Never went on the original trip I bought it for so had not taken it camping. We just went on a hike/climb this past summer and I took it with me. When I took it out of the bag, the rainfly was flaking apart at the seems. White flaky stuff falling everywhere..and also looked worn like it would if it had been sitting in the sun even though it had not been (my siblings could not believe it was almost brand new...they were convinced someone had to sell me a used tent accidentally). We did get rained on one night and it leaked horribly. Not just the seams…the whole thing. I was pretty shocked it was in that condition considering it was barely used. It was stored in a cool, dry place. I did contact Moosejaw last year (and again recently) and they said they couldn’t do anything since warranty expired. Also contacted MSR/Cascade designs last year and they asked for my address “in case” they could help but never came to anything. I just tried using Gear Aid seam sealant and water repellant spray myself to see if I could repair the old one. Still horrible (video below). Even being past warranty….This tent has only been used on one trip (was not used on any when the problem started) and had been stored safely. I would expect much more durability from MSR brand. - I also know it is not just me because a LOT of people have had problems with the rainfly for this tent (looking at other reviews).

Elixir 3 - Very disappointingI have had my Elixir 3 for about 5 years. I take very good care of my gear was very disappointed when i noticed the waterproofing was tarting to flake off. I did not have time to worry about it before a kayak camping trip so i repacked it and hoped for the best. As always it was easy to set up and we settled in for the night. Later in the night it started raining and we woke up to a tent with 1/4 in of water in the bottom and all our gear soaked. I have other tents that i have had for ten years and they sill perform like new. I have always been a MSR fan but i think i will have to look elseware if there gear cant even last 5 years.

This tent exceeded my expectations.This tent exceeded my expectations. It is east to set up and plenty big enough for me and my buddy. I have been very happy with all the msr products I have purchased.
Does this product come with a footprint? Thank you!
Asked by: Audi248
Hiya Audi248, thanks for your question! Yes, the footprint is included with this tent. Hope this helps!

What are the dimensions of the floor? Have you any idea why people had bad experiences with water thru the fly and floor?
Asked by: Kaykay
Hey there Kaykay, thanks for the question! This tent has internal dimensions of 84" x 68". Sadly I can't say for sure why some people seem to be having waterproof issues with this fly while some don't, it seems to be random from what I can see. If you have any problems with this rainfly or tent body just let us know, we'll do all we can to work with you and MSR to make it right. I hope this helps!
