I have a handful of bags that I no longer use. Figured I’d put them up here.

First up is a Booq Bag powersleeve. *SOLD* I bought this bag back in 04 (?) to use with my 14” iBook. I love this bag and can’t comment on how well Booq constructs bags. There are no tears/rips or any signs of actual wear on this bag and it’s over 3 years old! It fits an iBook, macbook, and a 15” macbook pro (although it’s left a little exposed when the flap is closed).
Here is a short review (I have the all black version):

Next up is a Booq Vyper Exo M. I purchased this bag in late September when I bought my MBP. In October I got a new job who provided me with a laptop and bag. I’ve literally used this bag twice. As much as I love it, I have no use for it anymore and it's just collecting dust.
Here are a few reviews:

http://theappleblog.com/2007/08/31/booq-vyper-exo-laptop-bag-review/

this bag is as close to new as you can get. They sell for $175-250. I’d like to get $150 for it.


Last up is an Ogio Metro backpack. This was the first bag I bought when I started my new job. Used it for a month before my girlfriend got me a Leeds messenger-type bag which I prefer for the airports. I don’t know if it’ll fit a MBP, but it definitely fits ibooks, macbooks, and similar sized laptops. There are tons of pockets, lots of space for storage, and very comfortable straps. I have a Sierra backpack that I use when I need a backpack so this is just taking up more space in my closet.

Here is a review:

my version is gray where the one in the review is brown. New I believe these bags go for $60-75. I’d like to get $40.


So…

$155 Booq Bag Vyper Exo M

*edit* took some quick shots and posted them below. any specific shots or more shots can be taken upon request.

I highly recommend Booq, I have used a powersleeve with my 12 inch powerbook and plan on getting the Folee XM for my MBP. Might consider purchasing the viper from you though since its such a good price.

i think the prices are fair, especially for the Exo M (booq sells it new for $215 and they charge a lot for shipping). please don't insult my intelligence.

cheers,
M
