Are you going to have another hundred bucks in a few years when the synthetic stops being warm, because you've restuffed it bunches of times and broken down the insulation?

Some things are only cheap if you don't have to buy them repeatedly. If you plan to backpack often for a few decades, a $240 down quilt is a steal.
