If you have a Petrol bag like I do, you fall in love quickly. I couldn't live without my PCAB-3R bag. I just got some Alienbees and needed a bag and found B&H has the PLC-5 Lighting bag for $195 which is quite a deal. I ordered one and thought I would pass on the deal.

    I just found that same bag on B&H and bought it because I thought it was a price mistake. The smaller bags are much more expensive than that model. I have yet to receive it. How do you like it?

    It's on it's way here. But the PCAB-3R is Amazing! Extremely well made.

    Oh I didn't see your post date was today too! I thought it said you posted in June. I joined just to ask you.

    Yeah I think it's a price mistake because of the other models being so much more. The bag sells on another site for $599 and yet another site says $599 is the list price. Curious to know if we got a steal and how it is. I just jumped on it. Got a shoot Sunday and this would be a great way to transport all my gear if I can fit my light stands, strobes, tripod, etc in it. If not, maybe I can sell it for more than I bought it for.

    Let me know when you get it. It says mine arrives tomorrow.

    It arrived just now but I'm at work and haven't had a chance to open it. Wondering if you had and what you think. Good bag? Good value? Worth keeping. If not I'll just throw mine back to UPS.

    EDIT: Okay, I couldn't wait. Was like a kid on Xmas. It feels sturdy and quite nice. Let me know what you think.
