For those of you who have not been to MEC (Mountain Equipment Co-op), there are many reasons why it's one of my favorite stores. Sadly there are only MEC locations in Canada, but I believe you can order on-line and have items shipped internationally. MEC has a rock-solid guarantee, so if you wreck a product, you can bring it back and say you weren't satisfied, and you'll leave with a new one. I have a Seal-line Boundary pack and a MEC waterproof pack, both 115 litre back packs. The MEC pack is the most comfortable pack I have seen for straps and padding, and I love it. And if it gets a hole in it, you can exchange it. I am planning to buy a new one, because I seem to need 3. The price is way more reasonable on the MEC pack than a Seal-line, and I like it much more. I will probably only ever buy MEC packs in the future. However, my sister's pack somehow got punctured by a knife or something, and if they don't fix it or replace it, that may change my opinion. But I am certain they will:)
