Someone over at The Raven suggested that another person selling the same type of item filed the complaint to eliminate competition.

I would say the strap really doesn't matter too much (unless you wanted to keep it as an intact WW II artifact) For an Indy bag you need to remove it anyway and replace it with a leather one. If there is a problem with the part holding the rings, you might want to have it replaced or email WPG and t...

WPG has original bags for $45 plus shipping. The one I just got was still less expensive even when including the shipping.

I feel once I repair the hole and make the shoulder strap this will be a fine addition to my costume. :)
