Title: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: justnotcricket86 on April 01, 2011, 05:40:18 PM
Took delivery of this rather nice bag today, bloody huge! It's one of the new ones that were stuck in customs for what seems like years.

My first purchase from Tom and he was a diamond, ordered yesterday morning and came whilst at work today. Very pleased with it, loads of room, love the padded bat pockets on the side which are great space savers.


Not great pictures but you get the general idea. Managed to get pads, 2 x gloves, 2 x keeping gloves in the side pocket, keeping pads, towel, balls, thigh pads, other stuff and will get 2 pairs of boots plus that top pocket for your helmet.

If you need a bag and don't buy this, there is something wrong with you. Simple.

Enjoy

Fantastic bags, I love mine

looks a good bag, i need a new one, my current one's too small for my batting and keeping kit, how much did it set you back if you don't mind me asking?
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: justnotcricket86 on April 01, 2011, 05:46:08 PM
Standard website cost mate, £66.99 plus £8ish quid next day delivery. Considering you drag it round the county with you for half the year plus winter nets etc, not a bad price. Buy cheap, buy twice as my mum always said!

Ahh okay, i'm really unsure what bag to go for, this one looks really good, but i only wanted to spend about £55

£15 extra mate is a couple in the pub these days, worth the money in my opinion

They are well worth it I have one of the new ones but it was not my first purchase off Tom  ;)

looks very impressive may have to get one i think
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: justnotcricket86 on April 01, 2011, 05:58:39 PM
The 3 wheel addition is good I think, I didn't have a prototype version but given a bag that large it seems very stable. Well chuffed
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: golders on April 01, 2011, 08:03:16 PM
does it stand on its own upright solidly?
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: SillyShilly on April 01, 2011, 08:08:09 PM
Lovely looking bag - could easily fit some of my team mates into it.......which could be a rainy day scenario :D

Just what the majority of us forum members need though - massive bags for the ridiculous amount of kit we'll never use :D
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: justnotcricket86 on April 01, 2011, 09:42:19 PM
I have it standing up in the corner now so yes mate, it does the job!

I don't have any gear in it, just 47 gripping cones and a chevron

Post by: Six Sixes Cricket on April 01, 2011, 09:55:40 PM
I have the new one and it is a good bag. Loads of room, It does stand upright but does lean forward when stood upright as I think the feet are positioned a little too much towards the middle of the bag. For a match day bag it is spot on.
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Colesy on April 01, 2011, 10:43:20 PM
Got my bag earlier too, much better than the first version and now lives up to Ayrtek standards :)
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on April 01, 2011, 11:44:49 PM
Glad ur all happy with them, still got some in stock and will reorder a new batch soon....feedback from the 1st batch really helped with improving the design.

I'm sure there is still room for improvements but don't want to spoil u too much otherwise I'll never sell u next seasons ;) 
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Simmy on April 02, 2011, 06:48:42 AM
quality on the 2nd set is like night and day with 1st mate so much better
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: roco on April 02, 2011, 07:54:45 AM
Yeah 2nd batch has no tears ;)
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: uknsaunders on April 02, 2011, 08:48:12 AM
Grammar police alert:-

Large main pocket which can store a full set of kit inclduing wicket keeping with room to spare

Taken from your website (for this bag) Tom :-(

Did someone mention it has 3 wheels, the one on the website only has 2 :-(

Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on April 02, 2011, 10:25:28 AM
no hes always wore that one with the yellow blotch on it...no idea what it is tho....must be his lucky lid!
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: roco on April 02, 2011, 10:27:38 AM
Must be my eyes as I'm sure he wore a shinier one before but that may have been in the field or the sun

Tommy boy, can you let me know how big the duffle bags are measurement-wise? And does it have a bat-compartment in it? Cheers fella
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase

No bat compartment mate I'm afraid but does have a boot section on the bottom. Will size one up tomorrow for you

Do you know the weight of the stand up bag? And do you have an ETA for them being in stock?
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on June 08, 2012, 11:04:32 AM
No idea on the wight but at a guess id say 5kg ???

ETA is anticipated to be end of June.
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: BigBlueMachine on July 04, 2012, 04:34:22 PM
I see the stand up bag is now back on sale, I assume that means you have received the shipment?

Are you able to post some pics of the new bags with the updated modifications?
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase

Picked mine up today! Absolutely superb and a huge improvement on the old ones (the old ones were immense too!)
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ryan on July 06, 2012, 10:52:45 AM
whats the difference between this and the old one tom? is it just the wheels and pull handle?

Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: peplow on July 06, 2012, 10:54:10 AM
much better handle and boards that insert into the sides to stiffen up the bag slightly so i stands up better!

what about the material is that the same? mine has just fallen to bits again this is my second bad as well :(
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: BigBlueMachine on July 06, 2012, 10:42:36 PM
Noticed a few things whilst attempting to buy the stand up bag. Firstly when I enter the quantity as 1 and clck Add to cart it puts 2 instead on the next screen. Also when you put the UK in the shipping rates according to country it adds £8 instead of free postage to the UK.

Just thought you might like to know.
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on July 06, 2012, 11:06:51 PM
Thanks mate, will take a look at the website and sort it tomorrow!!

Hopefully easy enough to fix :)
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: BigBlueMachine on July 07, 2012, 05:00:28 AM
No worries. I've been waiting a while for one of these another day or two can't hurt!
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on July 07, 2012, 09:12:45 AM
Try now mate should have corrected the UK shipping fees :)
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase

Excellent. I have now purchased! Can't wait to receive delivery.

Yeah taken a while to get them as desired as we have only learnt through feedback what works and what doesn't
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Watsontotty on July 07, 2012, 10:54:05 AM
may well purchase one in time Tom.

Tom I haven't been able to get to the club and with tomorrow looking very unlikely I won't be able to get my bag to sort those pictures for you.
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase

No worries mate, can sort out whenever u get back up there

I ordered my bag on Sat, was told it'll be sent mon, and it arrived today (Tuesday). Fantastic service. Just 1 question. Should the bag have come with boards to insert into the sides? As mine hasn't come with any?!
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on July 10, 2012, 07:51:25 PM
Sorry I didn't pack this personally so didn't get the chance to check.

Please let me know as will raise it with our supplier if they aren't inside of the main pocket of the bag
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: BigBlueMachine on July 10, 2012, 07:54:03 PM
No definitely no boards inside the main pocket.
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on July 10, 2012, 07:54:53 PM
Ah ok I'll organise some for you shortly once in the office tomorrow!
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: BigBlueMachine on July 10, 2012, 07:57:33 PM
Cheers. Other than that minor issue I'm liking the bag! Would recommend to others thinking about purchasing.
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on July 10, 2012, 07:59:13 PM
Glad to hear it, have raised the issue with our supplier and will be sure to check all others that go out for the panels....we all know what assumption is after all!!!
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: peplow on July 10, 2012, 10:21:46 PM
have you checked inside the main bit of the bag, mine were inside and just looked like the bottom/back of the bag until i realised they werent!
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on July 11, 2012, 06:46:44 AM
Yeah difficult to spot them as they look very similar to the rear of the bag haha
Title: Re: My Nifty New Ayrtek Suitcase
Post by: BigBlueMachine on July 11, 2012, 03:30:30 PM
Haha, stop making me second guess myself. I've checked again and definately don't have any side boards!!
