WTB: Domke F-5XB shoulder bag

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Leica Photography : One Thread

Hey there guys. I just bought a Domke J803 bag and would also like a F-5XB bag. B&H want to charge me US$30 for shipping to Australia. Can anyone do better?

I'd like the bag in any sort of condition with all inserts, as sold.

Thanks

Mistake, I bought the F803, not that anyone cares.

Hey Jay, I know you have the bag I want. Wanna part with it?

Schiller's has them, though I don't know what they charge for shipping. I paid $65.00 for the bag, there. If it's less through B&H, that might make up for the shipping expense. Here' a Link:

The bag is around $47 at B&H, that's less than most US dealers charge. I know for a fact I couldn't ship it to Australia for less than $30. Unless you can find it cheaper in Australia, go with B&H. But get the following items form B&H to go with it: Op-TECH "SOS" *Mini* bag strap and Domke Canvas belt to match. Then hunt up a couple of velcro dividers from some bag you probably already have. The F5XB comes with only one insert and you relly need 3 to make the bag meet its potential.

Or just throw in other stuff you might need in the future (e.g. film) to make the shipping worthwhile.

jay, I reasd somewhere that you said to cut off the strap on the F803. Is this the same principle with the F-5XB? And is that definately the SOS mini for the F-5XB and normal SOS for the F803? Are the strap durable, being neoprene?

Thanks Jay
