So I'm posting all of the "good deals" that I found when I was searching, shipping NOT included (since shipping varies). Please note that I am in no way associated with any of these merchants and that I have no personal experience with any of them except for one. ALSO some sale items are not refundable, please read the warnings.

Kwigy-bo carriers
Some of the best deals for kwigy-bo - I was contemplating the Pamela and this is the best price I've seen for Kwigy-bo in general
Used London Ebay Item - Used but $50 bidding, $70 buy with free shipping (member is 100% positive)
Kwigy-bo Sales - from Kwigy-bo themselves. $110 Rhineston London and $25 Kai Bag.
SMALL Alex Denim - sale item, only comes in small. Best deal for small Alex.

Petote
Genevieve & 1 Metro- this is the lowest price I've seen for a Petote Genevieve. The only reson I did not get this is because it was a bit big. Comes in many colors, also 1 Metro in blue.

Petfly
City Girl Tote - best price I've seen for them. They look pretty nice and most places were sold out.

Trixie & Peanut
Cloth Tote - cloth but on the cheaper end.
Saratoga Tote - looks ok
Gramercy Tote - I ordered this one. If you want to wait, I should be getting mine tomorrow so I can give a better review on this carrier. I can also take pictures if anyone wants.

So there you go. I hope this will help those looking for a new carrier and a deal

Feel free to post sites that feature the same items but at a better price. I'll edit it when possible.

Thank you so much for posting all this information. I love the Pet Flys City Girl!!!

BrendaC87 · 05-13-2009, 08:25 AM

Oh wow it is really big but it looks really nice. Maybe someone with a bigger size dog would like it? I'm glad I didn't get it now.

If anyone has any more carriers they could review, I'm sure everyone would like to see it.

Welcome

Do you have one or is planning to get one? I would love love if you can review yours. I really like the air holes but the width seems a bit too big. But otherwise it looks nice.

Oh good, it's not just me. I saw a lot of cute sweaters, but no way to buy them. Thwarted again!

KWIGY BO LONDON BROWN/PINK DOG CARRIER - eBay (item 170328993837 end time May-12-09 15:11:28 PDT)

CouversMom · 05-13-2009, 10:07 AM

I have a chocolate brown faux croc carrier. It is quite large, but I took the supports out of it, so it folds in a little under my arm, so it looks more discreet than these pictures. I almost wish I would have got the size smaller.

I got it for about $35, so I cannot complain. It is good quality, but not too discreet. I plan on getting the Kwigy Bo Alex next.

But, he seems to like it, so I don't mind it for now

1. Couver inside. It is very roomy.
2. A view of the inside from the side. I like the sherpa rug that makes it comfy for him.
3. The bag against my frame. I am 5'4" 130. I usually carry the bag over my shoulder, but I do find that the straps occasionally slip.

I have the collapse problem with chloe with the black one, but the red one is real rigid and stays up on its own... it's my favorite. The end on the top where the zipper starts and stops were sewn to the sides of the bag...

heatherm0890 · 05-13-2009, 03:57 PM

katrinka,thanks i can picture how its sewed and i may try the same, i love the bag
Couversmom,I have that bag in pink and its prolly my favorite one...bailee pokes her lil nose out of the holes on the side so i have to thro a jacket on it when we go places she shouldnt be!

Yeah, Couver likes to poke his nose out, it's pretty cute

At Walmart the other day, the cashier asked if I had a dog because she saw his little nose poke out of the rivets. Funny. I want to get something a little more discreet so I can do more sneaking eventually.

Nope - I don't have it and don't plan on getting one soon. I make a denim carrier that my girls love and it is all I need for now.
