After scouring the definitive list of messenger bags on here I got obsessed with the idea of owning a VAGX bag (I like it, it's like a SAG, but it's something different to the ones I see everyday on my ride around London), which has taken me to the point of becoming the UK dealer for the Korean company. I'm not too sure how it happened (mostly bad Korean translations), but i'm on the point of making a new, bigger order, and I thought it was worth seeing if anyone would be interested in placing a request, rather than just ordering three of each and running to the classifieds to make a new thread.
VAGX have got a new line in from the ones discussed earlier in this thread, most of which are pretty sweet. I've never attempted to make my own bag, so I can't say whether or not they have fixed the issues mentioned by Scott up there, but they're a big improvement on the older makes. Plus the rolltops are amazing.
I'll be making the order at some point this week, and there's no need to pay or anything like that, I just wanted a view of if anyone would be interested in a particular design in case I bring across 2 and find that ten people want one, and I can then get in touch to see if you're interested. I'm working on an english version of the site, but google translate is pretty helpful in looking through the website until I'm done. And for a general idea 125000 KRW for the messenger bags is around £66 whilst 179000 for the rolltops is just short of £95. I'm happy to place an order for any accessories or clothes or anything like that if wanted, and the order should arrive late-October for a general idea of when to expect the stuff. Thanks for reading, I don't want to try push these on here as I plan on sticking around given how much i've learnt lurking, but considering the ridiculous cost of importing single bags it seemed a good idea to check if anyone else has been wanting for a while.
