Gregory G Pack

“I ordered one of these guys about a week and a half ago at the rock bottom price of $109.74. Catch was that it is currently on backorder and not expected until Septemebr 3.

Fine, won't be using it until end of the month anyhow.

Looking today at Campmor, the price has gone down to $69.34! Holy Crap!

I called up Campmor to say I want this new price and bingo, I got it. I figured I may have to fight to get it. Nope, the sales rep couldn't have been more cool.

“My daughter used to date a kid named Gregory Peck.

He didn't look much like the movie star, Gregory G. Peck--who, by the way, my daughter had never heard of.”

“Ha Ha!”

“Is that the guy from A-Team?”

“Be very careful with that pack, it doesn't "abuse" (read overloading) very well.
I had 40 lbs. in mine (yeah, I know it's rated for 30) and the pack lid came loose from the strap.
One of the straps on the hip belt is starting to come undone. I don't know what is causing that.
So, be careful and you'll like it a lot.”

“Good to hear naviguesser! I got this to cut the weight of of my Palisades pack. Going from near 7 pounds to 3 with this pack. I will be breaking the 20 pound barrier for the first time with this on my next hike.”

“I also had problems with my g-pack straps pulling out with a 25lb load.”

“The Gregory aside, I've enjoyed fantastic service from Campmor.

Also from Sierra Designs (brand new 3-ply G-Tex XCR parka to replace a 4 year old one whose seam tape started to de-laminate), LL Bean and Orvis. Oh yes, Karrimor packs in UK.”
