 |
|
I'm looking for a backpack for a month long trip to Southeast. If anyone has one for sale or could tell me where to get one I'd appreciate it. I'm looking for something super reliable.
Thanks. |

| How many litres and how much hiking are you planning on doing with it? One of the Northface 60L swivel ones are a little expensive, but they are quite comfortable. I am not using mine very often but I already tossed a suitcase I was replacing it with or I'd offer mine. |

| I heard there are stores selling backpacks and other gear in the Jongno 3 Sam-ga area of Seoul. |

| I'm planning on doing a good bit of hiking, so I would guess something in the 60-75 liter range? My friend back home had the 60L north face pack and it was quite nice. I'm concerned that buying it here it will be a fortune though. |

| TNF stuff here is way overpriced. I bought an Osprey for 140.000 which was the same price as REI in the states. If you shop around Dobangsan you can find brand names and sometimes the prices are ok. If you want some adjuma special just look anywhere. I just sold a 65L pack on here this weekend. I have a couple of 35s but thats to small for a month. |

I have a backpack thats between 60-75L. I can't remember exactly. Its orange, from Mountain Equipment Co-Op, its standard without anything fancy. I have only used it once, to come to Korea but that was enough to know that it was too big for me. I am willing to let it go for 80,000 won, I paid $120CND for it a year ago. I can send you a pic if your interested.
I live about 80 minutes outside of Seoul. Where are you and when do you want it? |

I'd definitely like to see a picture. I'm in Jungrang gu (Seoul) and I'm looking for a pack immediately. My e-mail is Marcbcampbell at Yahoo dot com. |
