People like to think "Oh, this dude makes these himself so they should be really cheap" but fail to take into consideration the cost of materials and time it takes to make a bag like this.

I dont need to be sold on the value - I get it.
Some people are good with it, and it may indeed be worth it. More power to him for his entrepreneurial spirit.

But I don't need to spend $140 on a "designer bag" to tote a few things around in. That's just not me.

considering how long it takes me to a bag, it sounds like a fair price.

Yeah I tried to keep the price reasonable. Being a college student I know money can be hard to come by for stuff like this. If I can sell a few of these during the school year it sure beats working at Target.

i liked it, now how do i get 10% off this bag
http://www.etsy.com/listing/79086322...ger-bag-marpat

AndrewBuka 08-06-11 08:32 AM

I will lower the price of the bag accordingly, just PM when ur ready to purchase the bag so I can do so. Another thing you can do is visit the "Shop" tab under the facebook profile picture and there is a promo that gives you the 10% off and lets u buy it directly off the site. Thanks!

That is a flap for a bag. Trying argyle for the challenge.
Plus wanted something a bit more discreet than my super mario bag.
