Full review
After research on several sites, including epinions, I determined the Kelty 3500 was what I wanted. The price ranges were from $84.99 to $110.00. Some places charged shipping. What I found on Mountain Sports Online was the exact backpack, no shipping fee (order over $50.00). This was the lowest price and no shipping cost added to the total.
I ordered, via epinions, and it sent me directly to the store and item. The whole order took less than 2 minutes. I ordered on Friday evening and received it at my front door the next Thursday. For follow-up I received an e-mail informing me of the day the item shipped out and a UPS tracking number that allowed me to click onto to location/status of my shipment.
The only negative is that the store did not offer a choice in size, ie. medium or large, which I believe the Yukon comes in. It just gave the item. Luckily, the item pictured, thus the right size was sent. Also, following my order there was an annoying survey and attempt to sign me up for something or other, no problem though as I easily clicked out.
No complaints.
Some other stores offer more extras, like fitting instructions, tips and good articles. But, if what your looking for is a straight forward, this is what I want, so ship it, kind of place this is it.
