Bags are here -
http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/31847/Chrome_Kremlin_Messenger_Bag
The deal is £70 for a bag that was normally £150. The downsides are
- This is a truly HUGE bag. It's not a hip briefcase but a working tool for a courier (one who can't afford a boutique bag like a PAC or Bagaboo, that is) or for someone who wants to use their bike as a grocery getter or for runs to the laundrette.
- The only fabric available is camo.
Chromes are decent bags or better as far as mass produced bags go. They're not in the same league as, say, PAC bags, but a PAC this size will cost maybe £250-£300 imported to the UK!
This thread shows the size well:

Definitely *huge* as opposed to merely big!
