http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lowepro-SlingShot-100-AW-All-Weather-SLR-DSLR-Camera-Bag-Black-NEW-/250936915734?pt=US_Camera_Cases_Bags&hash=item3a6d017716

It was found and I feel uncomfortable to buy, the price is too cheap but attractive.

If I buy it and find out it is not a real Lowepro. What can I do?

?? Don't know why you said it's "too cheap" and unreasonable... To me, that should be the regular online price for this model. Sometimes on sale you can find it at $49.99 in store...

Reason: I don't know if someone would even buy an used one for $20?? An used 200-AW is about $35-$45 depends on condition.

BTW, as a sling bag, 100-AW is too small, and it's an old model... I would rather use a regular shoulder bag.

Nothing you can do if it is FAKE ..

TONS TONS TONS of Fake (or defect) product such as lowepro from ebay ..  

However, not mean the quality is horrible ... most of them are clone ..  clone of clone ..  clone clone clone ....  

Anyway, don't buy sling bag la...  I got few of them ... they are no good to use ...

May be ok for girl .. I dont know.

Ask paypal for refund - 100% success rate.

Even if it's real, you can still claim it's fake and request refund.  Paypal is 100% towards buyers.

I have a slingshot 200AW
but I can tell you it's still not big enough

I have: a flash, a telephoto lens, a wide angle lens, a 50mm 1.8, a battery grip, and the camera itself to squeesh into this bag......
I will need a new backpack for sure once I upgrade away from my 400D (a small camera) cuz only these stuff already killed my shoulder muscle.

I have 2 Tamrac version of the Sling-bags.  I like them better, and as you know, I used to shoot weddings, and that what I have with me.  I plan to use the larger version for my trip to Beijing this Feb too.

作者: Catpiano    時間: 2012-1-6 08:57

Um .. somehow, those tamrac velocity ...  don't work for me as well ...  even those whatever side open or so ...   

I ended up still like those use old school style ..  either back pack bag, or side shoulder one ..  then add the Q strap .. (Q strap? or R strap? whatever .. )

Poor you, with the 70-200 F4L and the cam you still squeeze them inside the 200AW, it looks like an "alien" bag when you have everything in... It's not the Chinese LV (紅白藍)...

Clear your mind, unload your gear, and think about what should you put inside a 200AW... having a slang bag walking around should feel happy, you just overload it...

Put your telephoto lens and battery grip (no idea why you carry it all the time with your Rebel) in another bag...

BTW, for backpack selection, there are some concerns as well.

1) comfortness
2) style (for girls only)
3) weight
4) expansion possibility
5) location of openings (front, side, top, or back)

    That is what I meant ..  

Lots of them are fake ..  (or could be from the same factory, just not "APPROVED" produst.. )

It is not that you are buying a "H" or "C" bag, as long as the quality/material is good, and good price ...  ^_^

Anyway, I quite suggest those "insert", then doesn't matter if you have a coach or LV bag, can turn it into a camera bag! (plastic from LV is strong, can protect your gears pretty good! ^_^)

I do unload my flash or my telephoto lens sometimes depends on what I am shooting
but other items I do need
battery grip, for better grip lor.....

Battery grip, better grip? I think it only works on Rebel as the camera itself is too light (mostly plastic), once you've upgraded to a mag body, good enough for you to suffer to have a battery grip... wrist gets sore quite easily (or I'm just getting old... , 那些年...)
作者: 嘉嘉    時間: 2012-1-11 00:30

better grip and easier for vertical shooting ar
plus also balances the camera more cuz my lenses are kinda big comparing with the body.....

and I do have a slang bag that I picked up during boxing day sale

slang bag for casual everyday shoots
sling bag for when I want to be more serious, and like I said, I will get a bigger one eventually. And yes it is stuffed with a lot of stuff in it, but not to the extend that it got deformed or anything.

Inserts?  It seems a good idea. With camera bag, you really looks like a photographer, kind of dorky.  Can you post some links?
I don't own a camera bag yet, as I only go out with one lens.  Now I need to carry a flash.
作者: 嘉嘉    時間: 2012-1-12 01:34

I think even just going out with one lens, having a camera bag is better~~
cuz when you are not using it you can keep it in the bag for protection from scratches or something~
