My point was that you do have to be aware of costs and what your profit needs to be.
Yes businesses also price based on market, so perhaps we are both right?
And yes - that's exactly what Innova has done with the HeroPack. They took a $30 Magellan, added about $5 worth of structural improvements, and then did some market analysis and saw that there were no decent bags below $100. So they set their MSRP at $79, knowing there was going to be 1) demand for an Innova branded backpack at that price and 2) their "cost" is merely a few dollars more than the Magellan, and this was going to be a money maker, and 3) they can discount that for TD's and sponsors, and still end up with a winner.
Four choices for the HeroPack and four different choices for the Super HeroPack.
Did the email say anything about colors? Are you at liberty to divulge such details?
You said before that there are four each for the Hero and Super-
My guesses are Something red, blue, gray, and black.
Thanks.
I can measure the divider in a bit, but the inside is definitely not hook/loop type fabric. It's smooth plastic. You'll have to sew some fabric strips if you want velcro to stick.
There's already 1 divider sewn in that splits the bottom of the bag into two sections. It's permanently sewn on the back side, and has velcro on the other side (with a corresponding strip of fabric sewn on the front side). And in case you decide you dont want to use the divider it just folds out of the way.
Ok, thank you - that's what I was wondering... I guess my concern is that if I'm only carrying say 12-16 discs for example is it going to be annoying if a few are falling over (because not held up by any dividers other than middle) ... but I like idea of occasionally carrying backpack with extra space for jacket/sweatshirt, extra water/snacks, etc. on longer courses...
If you've not looked into it or done it, here's how to do the plastidip.
Stuff your bag full of towels or t-shirts, etc. to get it to fully expand and sit correctly. Tape off where you want the plastidip line to end. (like masking lines when painting the walls/baseboards in your home). Use the brush-on kind of plastidip (not the spray, as it's not as thick and more likely to flake off). Brush on a very thin coat, working the plastidip into the material, and the seams as good as you can. Let that dry, then brush on a thicker coat. Let dry for an hour, then brush on another thick coat. Repeat as you wish. I usually do 3-4 coats. For reference, I used about 3/4 of a bottle of plastidip on mine.
After you've applied the last coat of plastidip and waited a few minutes, peel off the tape so it doesnt get stuck once everything's dry.
Let the bag dry for at least 12 hours or so, and it should be good to go.
You'll probably need a new brush for each coat applied. This stuff is tough to wash out of a brush. I use the cheap $.99 chip brushes from Lowes.

Plasti-dipPED! Think it turned out well. I appreciated the instructions laid out for me!
