Wanted: Maxped Fatboy Black

[cerbera147]

This is probably too specific to ask for but I thought why not ask anyway

I would like a Maxpedtion Fatboy Versipack in Black  

I browse through all the usual places to see if anyone's selling but alas no  

Perhaps you've got one and want to move up to the Jumbo but don't know what to do with the Fatboy; hello

UK retail prices for a Maxped Fatboy range from £60 - £65   I am close to buying a knock off version for approx £12 but thought I'd put an appeal out first  

Also would anyone know what the cost would be to ship one of these to the UK from the US? Ta

Shipping at EDCdepot is 13$ to Norway in a USPS Priority Mail International Small Flat-Rate Box. I just ordered a JUMBO from him.

[cerbera147]

Thanks for that 

At least now I know it'll fit into the small flat rate box

His stuff is quite reasonably priced too. All in it would be about £47, not too bad

And if you use the coupon EDC you get 5% off your order. And don't forget that you get a free spy capsule and that you are suporting someone that is suporting this forum

[cerbera147]

And thanks again kind sir 

This may come together nicely

Good for you The Fatboy is an outstanding bag with great quality and I would strongly advise you against going for a knock off since with the Maxpedition you are paying for quality. Marc is also a great guy dealing with.

Did you get the Jumbo because the Fatboy wasn't big enough or as an extra to the Fatboy?

Most Jumbo reviews on the interweb has been of people moving up. I think the Fatboy size will suit my needs perfectly. The Jumbo would be ideal in other ways but I see the Fatboy as my main bag for some time.

I've got some stuff on ebay at the minute; if it sells well I should be almost there  I'll be travelling with work next month so that would be its trial run

The Fatboy is a perfect EDC bag for me but I ordered the Jumbo for those days when I need the larger space, like when I am heading to the range and I need to bring along ammo, ear protection, safety glasses and eventually a gun or use it as a camera bag. Fatboy = EDC use, Jumbo = hauling lots of stuff

I thought that may have been the case. Summed up perfectly "Fatboy = EDC use, Jumbo = hauling lots of stuff"

I ordered my Jumbo over a Fatboy because I always carry a half litre steel bottle, and it would of taken up far to much room inside the bag

Yep, definitely had a Jumbo due to the water carrying thing.

What you really need is a nice Pygmy Falcon

Then you could carry TWO water bottles.

No doubt if this turns out like my Leatherman's a Jumbo won't be far behind lol

Found this last night http://www.cpfmarketplace.com/mp/showthread.php?t=217862

A great haul if I had the cash, which I don't    I don't think he wants to split them but I asked anyway

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Can't hurt to ask

[cerbera147]

I asked him. Unfortunately the best he could do was the Fatboy with the Janus and 3 x 5 

A great deal but not when you're broke like me  Worth a try though

Think I'm set on a new one now though 

This was the knock off version I looked at http://airsoft-club.com/shop/tactical-gear/bag-case/shoulder-bag/military-universal-utility-shoulder-bag-black Worked out about £12 shipped. You have to agree it certainly looks like a Fatboy

For 12£ you really can't go wrong..

Would it not be cheaper to get it from the states and have a member send it over to you at cost?  I would be willing if you needed a proxy.  its just 13.00 for shipping.

Thanks Zack  Much appreciated 

I have spoke with Marc @ EDCDepot via email. He's got the Fatboy for $54 inc discount and he reckons shipping would be $12 - 14  Seems to be a good deal 

I've also asked if he could get me a triple mag holder too 

So I get a good deal and a warm fuzzy feeling for supporting a Multitool.org banner member 

Thanks for the offer though Zack
