Anyways hope to hear from someone with a stash of these bags.

I know its a bloody shame. The price of the vinyl just went sky rocketing and wasn't worth making them unfortunately.Quote:

Good for rubbish carrying, but also strong enough for firewood collection.
Don't want to part with them. Did have a 3rd one once, but someone here (TPC?) got it.
Good luck finding another.

Dammit! They are so good. Had mine since about 2015 always been one of my bestest buys. Been around Aussie twice and still in excellent condition.
Yep. They are the best. Got mine 2014 from Andy through Mudski ?? From memory ... Been on the car every single day since.
Well, it got carried over from my previous GU.
Other than those velcros starting to age and tear off , they bag it's self is like new after some vinyl treatment cleanup.
It's far superior than any other brand put there ( not going to mention any ).

My son reminds me every time I put it on that it's his, he won it at the very first meet I went to at Matt's place and when he's buys a 4x4 he's getting it back.
Little does he know he's not getting it...

Why did I not buy 2-3 of these when the master was still crafting? lol
Anyways the bag is still in very fine form. I still stand this is the best quality bag on the market that I've seen to-date. And its not just because AB makes them. In terms of material and craft of it, it is in it's own league.
The only thing going off is the velcros being worn and drying off.
Anybody successfully replaced these? And if so, with that type? I had a quick look at Bunnings and can't really decipher what will bond good to this type of canvas.

Re-stitching fresh hook & loop (velcro) is the only real long term solution unfortunately Hodgey Mate. There was a glue available in Australia many years back that was able to etch its way into pvc type vinyl but was banned for import, nasty stuff I’m assuming.
Any boat type cover manufacturer nearby your place should be able to stitch on a fresh set of strips and or swing by the valley one day passing through, there’s one out here too [emoji106][emoji106]

The long Velcro on the lid flap is fine. The 2 smaller ones on the bag front are all but gone.
There's a boat place 400m from me. Will swing in and ask their sewing skills.
