Hey all! 

Looking for both sizes of trunk bag for front and rear racks, as well as either a Happisack or Vagabond back. If there are older Baggins models that are close, those could work as well (such as the Li'l Loafer). Greens/Browns/Tans preferred, but open to other colors or patterns. I'm located in the SF Bay Area, happy to deal locally but shipping works as well. Thanks in advance!

Just wanted to thank those of you who have been reaching out, in case I missed anyone. Several excellent options have appeared in my inbox and it's hard to choose. I think this is the most responsive/helpful online community I've ever seen!

The search continues after fending off several illegitimate selling offers. So much for my "thanks" post. If anyone has any of the bags mentioned, please reply here first with details. Thanks!

I have been planning to post some bags for sale and this inspires me to do so sooner than later. I will let you know if I have what you need.

Thank you, Valerie!

I am pretty flexible, too, since I know there were a lot of older Sackville and Baggins bags that have been discontinued that I'd happily consider. Feel free to let me know what you have and send photos if not too much trouble. I appreciate it!

I have a like new Medium Saddlesack in blue with kangaroo pouch. It is the predecessor to the happisack.  It is a great bag, which is why I’ve held onto it, but it seems I always choose something else instead. I will post pics and a price tomorrow. 

Have the trunk sacks been discontinued?

Here is a link to an album with pictures of my like new / never used blue saddlesack Medium with kangaroo pouch.The interior has an extra inner flap to secure the contents. The two outer straps open and close quickly via snaps with buckles underneath to adjust length.  Two ample side zipper pockets are protected by leather flaps.  

I would be happy to sell the set for $210, including shipping in the continental US. I am happy to absorb the paypal fees for buyer protection. Let me know if you would like it.

Hey Val, thanks for the reply and photos! Another user reached out with the same bag in the same color as my recently-acquired grid gray trunk bag, so I went with that. This is a nice bag, though! Appreciate it.
