    Roof bag recomendations.. which one?

    Looking to get a roof bag (approx 1.5x1.1) for the occasional camping trip we do and wondering what people recommend at around $150-$250. Ideally I need it to be waterproof and easily accessible from the side. Collapsible is also a plus.

    Happy to hear any other advantages or disadvantages you might have with your ones, as there are plenty on flea bay but not sure about durability.

    thanks

    Ill start it ........RED....

    And seriously if you are only using occasionally the Kings bag seems ok to me. I use one and its ok but I also have another made by a canvas shop here in Perth. A bit more than $150 to $250 though.

    Well we probably confused the poor OP but...
    I wanted to be first but it would have broken my New Years Resolution not to mention 'you know who' Rooftop Bags on the Forum in 2016.
    So far so good...

    I just use an Ebay special in the roof basket on mine, seems OK to me

    Not so much an old joke as one that just never gets tired around here...

    How good a bag do you want?
    As mentioned the one I grabbed on Ebay does the job for me but I only use it once or twice a year or so as most of my gear goes in dustproof cases on my Tray

    Something that's not gonna fall apart in a year or two or easily fall apart..
    There seem to be a whole lot for under $150, hence why I'm looking for something maybe a little better but not near the top of the range.
