OrthodoxMason Report post Posted January 11, 2018 Moto, Many thanks for the kind words! I have indeed been spending quite a lot of time looking over Occidental Leather's price points. I discuss this a bit more in my update post that I just published here on the forum. Their prices are helpful comparisons, but I think that ultimately I am going to have to commit to a substantially higher price point than them. They are offering mass produced gear, and truly they strike a lovely balance of quality and cost savings. I'm interested in making the best quality bag, and as such am faced with the reality of charging a more top shelf rate. Now, who knows if anyone is keen to buy such a bag? At any rate, that is decidedly more verbage than you bargained for. Thanks for the recommendations to the business post, I shall try to read over them later today!
