    I think you had to be registered prior to it going on sale in the US in order to be in with a chance.

    No - people don't pay that much for a bag! WOMEN pay that much for a bag. I think this thread speaks massively about the key differences between men and women.
    IT'S JUST A BAG!!!! (I think from that you will be able to work out my sex).

    Hmmm... now lets think about all the ridiculous things men waste money on...:rolleyes:

    Just opened my email. No from AH mailing list, but yes from WAWWD, so I'll get the book and bag. :j

    I got one online in March but it's wearing out - the rivets are detaching from the fabric as I do use it as a shopper.

    I'd take it back and ask for a refund! x
    Gone ... or have I?

    That's a bit harsh biglugs. It's not ALL women, just stupid ones.
    Sorry - point accepted. You have to be part of a herd mentality to want to follow the hype towards buying what is, after all, JUST A BAG!!!!

    Well there's women for a start..... ;)

    Is this because the bag isn't designed to be used - it's designed to be sold to people who can tell their friends they've got a bag they can't use? BTW are these bags made by child labour working in developing countries, or are they made by adults in the West??

    To counter the 'plastic bag' hysteria, I wish someone would produce plastic bags emblazoned with "Proud to be Dumped In Landfill".

    The opposing point of view needs to be put, in the same public sphere as the "I'm Not..." bags.

    Those not "chosen" - look on Ebay. Fellow eco-warriors are giving you the opportunity to be fleeced for one of these. Lucky you!

    OMG!!! Do women REALLY pay the prices on Ebay for a cheap canvas bag?? Just because it is "as seen on Keira Knightley"??? After her performance in the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie I'd think people would pay her NOT to use their bags.

  • At those daft prices, I'm tempted to design my own. My sewing machine isn't being used at the moment, & I'm sure it wouldn't cost me anything like as much to make it. None of this 'select few' & 'if you get an e-mail ' carry-on for a start.

    You're quite right. I mean, this was seen on Keira and I certainly wouldn't want one of them. Euuuuuurgh:p 1321692.jpg
