#1 Post by superboss » Wed Nov 14, 2007 12:10 pm

Bought a bag 2nd (although listed as brand new) from a service similiar to ebay. The bag doesnt really look like an authentic IBM bag from what I can tell... what do you guys reckon?

I don't believe you would find authentic accessories like these for a thinkpad on eBay apart from private sellers.

If you want an authentic Thinkpad bag, consider taking a trip to Japan, you'll find big markets there.

Yeah I actually like it alot, I know I'm being silly but I'm about fanatic when it comes to original products vs bootlegs :d I like it, guess I should leave it at that :)
