On more positive issues, you may recall the trouble i had with an ebay seller a few weeks ago, with no communication and him telling me the Lug bag was out of stock. I emailed him again this week and said if i hadn't heard any more news and if he hadn't had his stock in by the start of next week, i'd request a refund. 4 days later he finally replied to me and said he was still waiting for his shipment and thought it would be in next week. I wasn't sure if i was being given the runaround or not but I decided to cancel the order. I fibbed a bit and said it was for a birthday present and wouldn't be delivered on time so there could be no argument. He sent the cancellation and refund through straight away! I expect that will come off the credit card on Monday as weekend transactions don't usually show up straight away but the Paypal log definitely notes that it has been refunded to my credit card. I know of at least one place that carries the bags locally and I'm going to keep my eye open. Might even go over to Coconut Creek in the Crossing with Mom today and see what they have in stock.

Edited to add...
I found the same one I had ordered online at CC. Boy am I glad I didn't end up getting the one online because the shoulder strap doesn't pull out long enough for me to put the bag across body the way I like to do. I would have received the bag and had to return it anyway or put up with it sliding off my shoulder all the time. Pity, though because I do like it. I ended up with one similar to the one i have now with a nice long strap and it's the same bright blue i had wanted. Also, it was 20 dollars cheaper so that's a result as well.
