That's a crackin' deal. Great bag but unfortunately I paid a lot more than that for mine last year

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I bought a Head Bag from S&R a couple of weeks ago for about the same price (with about 30% off). Not as sturdy as that, one but a lot lighter. With only 15kg allowance on some budget airlines it's a real struggle.

I bought something similar from S&R this season but when I got it home I found it weighed something daft like 6.5kg! compared to 4kg for the similar Swix I already own. I returned it. This sounds like a different one but make sure you ask in advance what the empty weight is!

I've got one of these. Packed for 10 days in Whistler including boots & helmet it weighs 22.6Kg, so no problem for me. YMMV, of course

I bought the S+R split roller bag in time to use for the 2005 season. Now one of the bag clips has broken. That's 5 return flights it's lasted. Would you say that's good value for money or that I ought to ask S+R for a replacement?

I bought three of these S&R bags in 1997 (but basically the same design) and one lasted 2 trips and the other two made it (just) to 3 trips. Two burst at the seams and the base came away from the other. I wrote it off to experience (the last thing I wanted was any more of the same stuff) and replaced them with "ordinary" Marks & Sparks bags which have, so far, see us through 3 trips per year for the past 8 years.

I sent S+R some photos of the broken buckle (owing to living about 50 miles from the nearest store) and they said they can replace the buckle for me free of charge. I thought that was really nice of them.
