[FS - ADL - Post Aus.] Granite Gear 'Blaze A.C.60' Backpack

[Dreamer]

For Sale: my Granite Gear Blaze A.C.60 Backpack in 'Tiger-Java' colours and size men's regular torso (adjustable) and men's medium hip belt (adjustable). Hip belt is user replaceable for men's/women's in any size. Price with Granite Gear rain cover and shoulder pouch: $210? plus half of postage (if required).

The pack is 60L volume & weighs approx. 1.3kg. The pack is very well thought out, with two side and one large stretchy pocket in addition to the voluminous main compartment. The extremely comfortable (adjustable) harness system transfers weight to the hips very effectively.

Nice pack. What size hipbelt?

[Dreamer]

Hi kulara, it's a Men's medium size hip belt with advertised 30" to 34" adjustibility. However, I believe the useful range is much wider than that. I am 34inch waist and I have hip belt cinched up a lot (by about two thirds), so I think you could go up to 38inch waist or more. Sizing manual for this pack is at link below. Pack is 'as new' except side pockets have been pre-stretched by first use with water bottles and stove. When new pockets were very tight. Cheers, dreamer.

Forgot to mention that the hip belt is easily replaceable. You can buy any size hip belt or even a cool lid for this pack. I prefer my packs with no lid...I find lids with stuff in them just flop around and get in the way when packing/unpacking.

I might be interested in purchasing. How much would it cost to send to Brisbane?

[Dreamer]

Hi wobbles,

Sounds good, I'm sure you'll enjoy using the pack. I estimate it would cost about $50 to send the pack & accessories to you (see Couriers Please quote below) including packaging (so $25 each). If it's any less I'll refund you, anymore and I'll cover it. So total cost to you for all $225. If happy to proceed let me know and I'll PM you with my name, mobile number and account details.

FYI to buyer/seller, check with sendle (https://www.sendle.com/pricing), if the volume of the package comes in under their limits, they can be very cheap due to using bulk courier rates (like e-go, transdirect etc).

at 80x40x20 = 64L <=100L = $25.95 nationwide (excluding remote locations), or $18.95 if you can get it down to <=40L. (surely an empty 60L pack compresses to less than 40L? 80*40*12 will do it)

No affiliation, but they were my best option to send things in the past.

Hi blakey, yes that service sounds good?...maybe $10 cheaper. Without packaging the compressed pack size is just 65X32X12(squashed hip belt), but I was allowing for a box or bubble packaging & bag to protect the pack. Regardless the postage cost will probably not be high ie $25.95 max + packaging (cost?). So to make it simpler...if 'wobble' or anyone else wants to buy the pack & accessories for $200 I am happy to pay all the postage & packaging..

[wobbles]

I'd happily purchase the pack+accessories for $200 if you are willing to pay postage. Send me a PM with the details.

[Dreamer]

Thanks wobbles. For some reason I can't send you a PM (maybe because you are a brand new member as of 3.37am this morning!). Text or email me your name & address & I'll reply with mine & account details for payment.

[blakey_]

glad to have saved you some postage costs!

Word to the wise - avoid e-go at all costs. They're cheap for a reason. Couriers Please booked via Interparcel has always served me well.

No involvement with either except as a customer.
