Cheap Bags - Anyone bought one of these?

Seem ok to me,lookes like one of the redsnapper bags I just brought,which I thought was very good and well made.

I have a couple Billingham,but manger to get them at good prices 2nd hand,I don't think I would spend full money on Billingham,any more :)
 
I bought the medium version, on the plus side the "padded box" part is thicker than I expected and comes with two dividers in the usual velcro, shiftable style. It is easily deep enough for my d3100 and kit lens. The stitching is good enough for weekend work. On the negative side, it is thin canvas, not waterproof or even drizzle proof and there are no studs on the base to prevent the canvas wearing out.

hmmmm, how big is it? two flashes, chargers, d3100 with kit lens fixed, 35mm prime. snickers bar and a bottle of water, plastic bag, (see comment re rain), and some room to spare.

Thanks for the comments guys :thumbs:

I'm still undecided :lol: I've been looking at the Redsnapper bags which look amazingly good VFM.

I like the look of the eBay offering though, and it certainly looks big enough! :D
 
I think it is too expensive for what it offers. Half price at amazon For similar. Check koolertron and kalahari bags.
 
I was just after something that combined the cool indiana jones look with a level of subterfuge allowing me to traverse london with out getting my head stoved in.

It works well enough, I managed to get lost in a nasty backwater a few weekends ago and I didn't feel too conspicous.

Not sure if I am allowed to say this but there is a uk based ebay seller shipping these bags.

Another 1 for the redsnapper one I have it. Great comfy bag with lots of room
 
Having seen a Redsnapper on here for £34.00 I've decided to try one of those.

I like the style of the cheaper looking bags, let's see what the Redsnapper's all about :)
