Cyprinus F&L turned up today after getting it for £110 on the auction.
Must say I'm really pleased with it. Looks a good piece of kit, well made and functional for what I need.
👍

Would you like to open it up and see if it's waterproof please?
I need a new brolly and I go back and forth on these with the auctions.

I've just won a dpm one for 110, didn't really need it though, didn't think I'd win it 😅

Yep mirrors what I've seen too

I had a terrific purchase in an auction last year, a Cyprinus "Carp Carryall Xtra Large". I won the auction for £24.99, but, I did not notice at the time that there was a 30% discount off all purchases which was applied to my winning bid. My payment was only £17.50. When I bought it, I just wanted a new carryall and I was not expecting what a gem of a piece of luggage that I had bought.
The bag itself is probably the best "Carryall" style bag that I have ever had myself or even seen by other manufacturers. It had two huge pouches that fitted into the side compartments and clipped in, one with a rig board and plastic sleeves combined for storing tackle, the other sectioned off with moveable dividers for tackle etc, both "swallow" up a lot of tackle combined. The top had a large pocket with a plastic tacklebox inside, the front also had a large pouch, a large main compartment and at the bottom an EVA base with another large compartment inside. And the best bit, it stands almost as tall as it is wide so does not take up a lot of space on the floor of the bivvy.
I would more than personally recommend one and if I lost, damaged or ruined mine without hesitation I would hope that I could get another, but sadly, I have never seen them again since I bought mine and it appears that Cyprinus do not sell luggage anymore.
I have not even seen a copy or reproduction of it to buy a spare.
