Well if you're XS Planet X have this for a tenner.

They have a few others, but just small or very large sizes left by the looks of it. I got the Astana one. They are decent quality; certainly worth £10.

These traditional style Holdsworth Cotton Canvas and leather 30L backpacks look a good buy at £10 plus £3.99 postage from Planet X.

Edit - I’ve ordered one of each, I’ll report back and let you all know what they are like.

Well the bags arrived today, the ‘leather’ trim is plastic leather but despite that they are really nice quality.
The black one is much stiffer, a coated kind of cotton, the sand one is a softer cotton. At £9.95 each they are a bargain, I’m keeping both but if I had to pick one then the black one edges it.

This came today, and whilst it's a nice jersey the sizing is a little more relaxed than I bargained for; I'd say it's a small at best.

If I'd have paid £59.99 it would have gone straight back, but at £18 it's a keeper. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the report back - relaxed fit is good I think - looks cool.

Aldi are doing merino base layers very soon - may help - I tend to wear a base layer, usually merino, on all but the very scorchiest days

I’ve taken a punt on this semi roller as I’m not brave enough to go for a front roller too. At £26.99 I’ll see what happens. Looks to be for sale on Ali Express at £60-£70.

If it's from china, at that price there will also be duty to pay?
plus a post office add-on fee for handling the customs/duty stuff?

Depends on what they put on the import label. Generally anything marked under £15 is allowed to slide but anything over attracts a duty plus £8 handling fee.

yes i know some folk play games.
Have seen some folk on here now and again advocating/championing dodgy declarations.
I order some cheap bits from china, nothing safety critical, and always under £15.
I'm not into fraud/supposed presents from chinese relatives.

Yeah, I’m not into playing games either. At most I’ll have £5.40 VAT and £8 handling so a total price of £40.39 which is still fairly cheap.
