late spring or summer. I can't remember exactly when. They sell all their old models of some stuff making room for the new stuff.

They usually have garage sale in May and have some deals on packs there. I dont think it is good idea to go to garage sale anymore, last year it was horrible, they were letting 100 people in for 30 second to pick up to three items, it was very crowded so you couldnt move and nothing was in order, I wasnt able to get even one thing. Plus I dont like their quality, I ripped my new rain pants and jacket on very small branches last season and many other small rips. Their packs are ok but they are very noisy and I wouldnt buy ultra light. Im really disappointed with their quality and customer service.

I just checked my last order from them - 07/01/16. I believe the Ultra 6000 was about 70% off, somewhere in that range.. They ran a sale over Memorial weekend that year, a buddy bought the pack, I was impressed, and then lucked out when they put it on sale again in July.
The squeak on mine was the very bottom of the carbon frame. I put a small part of on old t shirt around it, and it's squeakless now.

I used the sleeve, pulled it up over the bottom of the frame, then folded the slack over the bottom so it's completely covered.

I like my pack, I have the icon pro 1850 for day hunts and the 7200 bag for overnighters. I’ve yet to pack meat with it so I can’t tell you how much I really like it yet. I haven’t killed anything since I got it, maybe the squeaking has scared all the critters away??
I think most of the packs out currently are made of the same material or something very similar. I believe cordura 500 and 300 are common. I would like a more quiet type material or even a layer over what is currently being used to get our packs a bit quieter. I know my kifaru isn't overly stealthy. And exo and kuiu, mystery ranch are all very similar in noise. Most my archery hunts I use my nimrod pack because it's much more quiet.
But back to the topic I hope to be able to pick up a 1850 on the next sale. I haven't got to use a kuiu yet.

I have the Ultra 6000 and really like it! But they are doing a Winter Sale right now and up to 50% off select items. Unfortunately, not their packs.
Good luck!
