SOLD SOLD SOLD 2/14/18

Have high quality, used, semi rigid travel bag with wheels and retractable handle and concealed straps to convert to backpack for sale in good and clean (but not new) condition. Fits in domestic overhead compartment- not sure about commuter planes or international flights- things have changed so much in the past several years. I don't know if it would fit on the floor under the seat in front- never tried it but I think it would be a tight squeeze. Has retractable handle that has proven to be sturdy and bag rolls easily. Has adjustable dividers inside that can be configured as you wish. Most any dividers with velcro would fit as well. Also has original locks. Has tripod provision via pocket and straps on side of bag. Very handy bag for someone that travels. Front pocket will fit 13" laptop. Computer compartment is unpadded. Bag is about 7 years old- been on 2-3 flights but mostly been used for lens storage for last 5 years. Stored inside non smoking home.
21(long)x14(wide)x8(high)
$100.00 - you pay shipping- there will be postage overcharges for size. Sorry- US shipping only. PayPal.

UPDATE- 2/14
FYI- SHIPPING WILL COST ANYWHERE FROM 25.00 - 65.00 DEPENDING ON HOW FAST YOU WANT IT AND HOW FAR YOU ARE FROM AZ. Ground takes about 7 days. Priority takes 2-3 days. It's not so much the weight- it's the size of the box.

If you want me to check rates I will need a zip code and those rates will be approximate until I actually pack it and recheck the weight and size.

BTW- these type of bags retail for 250-400.00 B&H has one of these used for 279.95 Just saying :)

If I didn't already have so darned many bags I'd buy it from you. What do they cost new? $250?

Does it have provisions to carry a tripod?

Sorry for delay in replying to you but I just got back from Tucson. I don't think it does.

Thank you! I do have someone interested :) It really is a good bag- I have pretty much switched over to lighter and smaller gear so don't need all that room.

Still enjoying the travel tripod I purchased from you. Worked great in Costa Rica.

This bag is a bit larger than usual current carry-on limit of 9" x 14" x 22" and that is on the more liberal airlines. Several airlines measure your bag. Smaller aircraft also have more size restriction regardless of airline. Also, if you are not among the early boarding groups they will usually gate-check your carry-on because they ran out of overhead room. Some airlines also have a weight restriction and do enforce it. GoldStar Airlines, for example, both measures and weighs everything, including your carry-on, and if it exceeds the limits you have to leave something behind. Other than North Korea's airline (which most places ban due to poor maintenance and safety), GoldStar is probably the world's best airline to avoid.

This bag is a bit larger than usual current carry-... (show quote)


The ACTUAL, OFFICIAL measurements according to Think Tank Website are:

8x14x21"

So it meets the "usual, current, carry-on limit". (Actually it is a little under the requirements)

Thanks for your input.
