FYI, these are great flip-lock legs (if you're into those),
Also they are 10 bucks cheaper on Amazon atm.

I'm debating joining the drop. To help with my decision, I'm interested in what features make this tripod model 50% more expensive than this one: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/giottos-ytl8384-carbon-fiber-tripod#overview ($200). Thanks!

AndrewHsuUp to you if it is worth $200 more. There is 4 lbs more load capacity here, the overall height adjustment is 2 inches higher, it folds down almost 1 inch shorter. And it is a bit lighter in overall weight. Looks like you lose the center-column angle adjust, which I consider as OK because that will take away from stability. I think we see it in the specs with the extra load capacity. 4 extra pounds is considerable when you get into long telephoto lenses and not getting the legs starting to wobble on you. Start doing astro-photography and stability really gets important.

AndrewHsuThey just raised the price I guess not to eat their private label brand that's currently selling on Mass Drop. But wait a few weeks and get the Vanguard Veo2 235CB I bought it in July last month for $140. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072J9W4R9/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This is the mass drop tripod I was talking about most likely their private label brand from Vanguard as the design is almost identical: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/3-legged-thing-punks-tripods
