are you brought a fake product ?

Original product. Bought it from Thunder Match who refuse to change / refund even the bag had the same defect TWICE over 2 months.

Hi Bro,
I have been using Checker Plate Bag to protect my laptop for 3 months.
The condition of the bag still Good except it look abit dirty.

I was suprised when i saw your thread because your problem doesnt seems happen on my bag.
As you said the metal support structure at the bottom left came out and damaged your shirt after it used for one month, but i don't see this problem happen on me anyway.
Em, maybe because of the way you take care of your bag ?



Haha !
How come a bag will weights like a rock without the laptop ?
It doesn't make any sense at all.
In every purchase of bag, i believed that you will be given chance to test and touch the bag before you pay the money.
If the bag happened to be heavy like rock, I don't think you will buy it.
Isn't it ?
The thing is, have you ever own a checker plate for yourself ?
In my point of view, checker plate provides a comfortable cushion when i carry it.
Well, undeniable, it might differs to others.

I'm not here to praise or promote checker plate bag,
it is just an opinion from a checker plate's user.
My 5 cents.

My bag : -

omg i just had the exact same prob as u. one month as well. checkerplate =_="

I bought the bag because of the cushion, however with this type of built quality, it is definitely does not worth our money to buy.

Check Plate appointed dealer Thunder Match definitely aggravated customer's experience to a new low point.

Well, I just bought the exact same bag (but different colour) from Thunder Match at Low Yatt Plaza as well. Price at RM 129.

I like the design but the rest not so sure yet.

Well, it serve me well so far.
Lucky me

yup i agree most of the shops in lowyat will cheat you if you let them. my back pack is a Deuter Venom 30 (i think it has been discontinued) and it can take 14 inch notebook or a 3l camelbak tank! goes to work or mountainbiking with me! awesome! got it at a UFL roadshow! and at a sweet price of less than rm200!

But i doubt big retail shop will cheat tho.
eg. All IT, Sri Computer or Thunder Match

Lolx, the thing is,
You know how much margin you can earn by selling Checker plate ?
I knw it from one of fren who sell bag.
Well, cant say out the cost of each check plate here >< sry

If the profit margin is low , they should sell it at higher price.

The thing is,
The cost for each unit = unexpected low !
Therefore, they are trying to push checker plate instead of selling other bag inorder to gain more profit.
We can't blaim Thunder match for selling the bag,
because it's the nature of a business to make money

As long as the quality is good, then should be okay regardless how low the cost of production is.

b4 this was aiming for chekerplate but after reading all these review it seem that 5 out of 10 chekerplate bag create problem after 1 month.....time to look into other brand

Actually it depands on user itself, depands on how you take good care of your bag also.
Well, mine still good condition so far

The design of Checker Plate bags are so cool. Just love the design.

Anyone knows the main purpose why the bag come with an extra removable cover just for you to put your laptop?

The core message is Consumers' Rights must be respected and protected.

We must demand:

1. Quality Product
2. Customer Service

For those who love the design of Checkplate and yet complaining their qualities , Please get yourself the real brand , Crumpler.


Price wise , It's only 5-6 times of the price for Checker plate .
It's still worth your investment.

5-6 times ...
Wah

Exaggerate the price difference.
It should be around RM200+ higher only.
