Umpire bag sale

[leump]

The $59.00 Pronine bag looks like a great bargain to me. Just picked up 2 yesterday. They are located in Garden Grove, CA. so we did not have to pay shipping.

The handle was originally placed above the zipper of the lower compartment. This caused occasional ripping of the bag. They removed the handles and riveted them below the zipper area. I would not have been able to have noticed if it hadn't specifically been shown and pointed out to me.

Compared it to my old beat up Diamond bag. Other than the Name/Graphics, I could not tell a difference.

Steve, Dani and I have never had to pay more than the $25.00 first checked bag cost. We do travel extensively.

Is this $175.00 over sized bag fee new with Delta? Since last spring?

Thanks,
Willie

Of course, you do, maybe not Delta? I guess enforcement can be discretionary, and you may have a frequent flyer status that supercedes, but here are the rules posted by Delta (and similar to others, I am told, although I fly 90% Delta coming from Atlanta); Oversize Baggage

One-way Fees for Oversized Baggage
The following charges apply if your checked bag exceeds our size limitations:
United States
Geographic Region Ticket Purchase Date Fees (Each Way)
Travel within/between United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands Any 175 USD/CAD/EUR* for bags measuring 63–80 inches (161-203 cm) in combined length, width, and height

300 USD/CAD/EUR* for bags measuring 81-115 inches (204-292 cm) in combined length, width, and height

Bags larger than 115 inches (292 cm) are not allowed


36 + 15 + 16= 67" combined.

Hmmmmmm

We fly Delta quite a bit to Salt Lake and other areas. I have seen them worry about golf club bags and ski/snowboard bags but only worried about the 50lbs weight restriction with our umpire gear bag.

Thanks for the heads up.

Great tip! I ordered one of these today, to be sent to me via a friend in Los Angeles.
