augustineRS 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2005 If you have intend to buy timbuk2, macshop seemed to sell it at a cheaper price. I felt that those at bugis wont last, it also depends on amt/what(type) of stuffs you carry. For example, crumpler cost as much, but they do last so is timbuk2. I relatively new to chrome, but looking at the stitching and design, the build is quite solid too. Beach Rd might be another alternative, but i think they sell similar,if not same, stuffs as to bugis village. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
