So I've ordered a Red Oxx Sky Train. Will cost me about $400+ in shipping and customs charges but I'm hoping it will be worth it.

I have no problem waiting. I am very much interested in the EO but do not have an immediate need. Just wanted to know if MEI is likely to respond to email - some shops I have dealt with require phone contact.

I look forward to hearing from Ahmed.

Yes, it does. When I got it back with all the "upgrades" I told Ahmed that I really thought the bag would be much more useful with tie-downs in all 3 compartments. He agreed, and you'll see in his post above (dated 6/25) that tie-downs in all 3 compartments are now standard for all new EO's.

As I'd mentioned before Ahmed happily sent me a complete set of tie-down straps with the clips. I just found a local shop to sew them into the bag, it cost me $4. You might call or write to Ahmed, I would think he might very well do the same thing for you. The shop took less then 15 minutes to install them, and it's a great addition to the bag.

My bag only has tie downs in the rear (main) and middle compartments...

(Save on Shoulders) strap at amazon.com. Amazon is charing $19.95 for it, plus $3.85 for shipping. Tom Bihn's price has gone up to $30 for the Absolute Strap, plus shipping. You can order the exact same strap from Amazon and save about $10.
