They are handsome and rugged, and roomy. I just throw them over my shoulder on my way out the door and I have my tunes, CD player, daybook, reading material, lunch and stuff and stuff and stuff...
I used to carry a lot in a shoulder bag with a strap that would really hurt my shoulder at times (too thin and too heavy). But with the saddle bags, the connecting leather between the front and back bags is 4 inches, and that distributes the weight so much better.
I have had a ton of complements on their appearance. And I like being an original. I have never seen any other guy in Toronto wearing these.
I paid $18.00 U.S. for them. I love them.

A replacement screen for my lap top computer. It never arrived supposedly by courier services, I had to provide a street address other than my normal P.O. box. The seller not having a record of it sent, It was supposedly lost so another was sent, This time to a U.S. address for convenience and consideration to cost to the seller and arrived grossly inadequately packaged and the item destroyed.
It returned as I received it at further extra cost and I was never refunded or received another item despite the seller having a few more for sale since. I reminding him he still owed me also.
Time factors in this not being able to initiate any paypal dispute etc or get CC refund. This taking near 6 months to never be completed.

I owned one of these years ago and after taking it in for service, the watch "repairer" lost it, so he claimed.
Found not just one, but TWO in the same style right here in Canada!

I won a ballroom dress and contact with this seller was top notch and with an honest flare.
He accepted a payment threw Western Union to my pleasure as a money order would have taken to long and I do not have paypal.
The ballroom dress is stunning to say the least and it fit perfect. The prompt delivery to Canada was top notch and he was always in contact with me.
It is so nice to have dealings with a seller on the opposite side of the world and it going so smoothly.
Thanks Ebay and Frank.

I've been getting somewhat involved in photography lately, with older SLR cameras. My family is on a digital revolution, however they all stop and stare at my pictures (great feeling!!).
Instead of spending 900 bucks on a DSLR, 3 years ago I bought a Pentakon Praktika LTL Camera from a pawnshop, with a few lenses. I found one more lens for this at Value Village. Since this camera is circa 1951, they don;'t make lenses for this anymore, or even gaskets so I can get it repaired. So on the hunt, I found a 1978 Minolta srt-202 in a pawnshop for 28 dollars. On ebay, I found my most wanted 100-200 mm zoom lens. I paid less than 12 dollars CAD AFTER shipping and it works perfectly! I've now found a 28 mm wide angle, and a trigger cable for this camera on ebay.
With my love of older style cameras, that you CANNOT buy parts or repairs for anymore, EBAY is an invaluable source for finding parts and accessories from all over the globe.
Thank you Ebay!! Btw.. anybody want to buy an antique german camera? 😛

I was sent an email (FAKE)Telling me
that paypal had received a deposit in the amount that he
owed and that he was a verified buyer. Only after
shipping and emailing them a tracking shipping
confirmation the money would then be released... I WASN'T
BORN YESTERDAY.....THE EMAIL DID LOOK LIKE THAT OF PAYPAL
BUT IT DIDN'T MAKE SENSE WHY IT WOULD ONLY BE RELEASED AFTER
THE SHIPPING# OBVIOUSLY IT WAS SO THAT YOU SEND IT AND
GET SHAFTED... WELL HE WHO CAN PULL A FAST ONE OVER ME
HASN'T EVEN BEEN CONCEIVED YET!!!!BE VERY VERY
CAREFUL NEVER SHIP ANYTHING UNLESS YOU SIGN IN TO PAYPAL AND
SEE YOUR MONEY CLEARED....Anything that you have to ship to
Nigeria be suspicious and do a few phone calls, don't be
affraid to call paypal they will tell you if it is
fraud... I don't mean to put down ligit buyer or sellers
from Nigeria but it doesn't hurt to double check...
Safe buying and selling...MY 2 CENTS WORTH!
PS Unfortunately I cant write the scumbags names as it is in violation of "EBAY POLICY"! Guess what they are no longer ebay registered..It amazes me how someone can sign up 1 min prior to end of auction and bid even though they had to be registered with ebay & paypal they did and bid..This is the second time it's happened, and twice ebay got paid by me but not me... DO YOU THINK EBAY REALLY CARES ABOUT THESE CROOKS??? THEY GET PAID!!!!I'M TOLD BY THEM THAT I CAN'T WRITE THEIR NAME OR EMAIL BUT THE FAKE BUYER HAS MY MAILING ADDRESS.. HOW IRONIC IS THAT.....
FORZA ITALIA !!!!!!!!!!!!
