It's rare. You can get overfill for free or something but honestly that is probably not useful as they are naturally overfilled. They are great bags , and IMO it is less expensive for people to pony up and buy a good bag. I've known too many people that cycle through a bunch of bags before ending up at WM or similar anyway

Pretty sure I got mine on sale at backcountry.com

They recently had a 20% off one full priced item sale. I bought a pair of simms waders with it and free 2 day shipping, really the only brand they wont/cant discount is garmin and arcteryx (I'm told)

Worth a call and see if they will honor that sale still...business has been slow for them, they may be willing to help.

Thank you! I was able to get a 20% discount by chatting with an online associate and working with them to complete the transaction in the background.

It should be slow for them for forever after the lawsuit nonsense they pulled. I wouldn't buy a pack of gum from those guys anymore.

Sometimes it sucks to be the little guy. I'm not here to pick sides. Like em or hate em, buy their products or dont, I really couldn't give two shits about arguing over a companies politics anymore. We can do that all day with BHA, Sitka, Patagonia, KUIu, you name it, and I've partaken, but it goes nowhere and changes zero opinions on either side...its tiresome. Maybe the gentleman above didnt have the extra $150 to spend on a bag, and now, he's got a top tier bag at a price he can afford. Good for him. Your opinions on the matter is none of my concern.

Do you have any idea why I said what I said about them? Obviously not. They literally sued hundreds of companies that had the word Backcountry in their name. They forced a lot of companies that have nothing to do with them to either change their name or go bankrupt because of their BS. Save your 20% and support them sumbitches all you want, it's your dollar. But the fact that they ruined people's lives over a word that literally can't be trademarked and means freedom to a lot of people is ridiculous.
