    Has anyone managed to buy a new bag for their laptops in Canada from Dell/Alienware? I have the new R4 coming and it is not going to fit in either of the bags I have for my R1 from what I understand.

    The Canadian webpage is laughably out of date and the gearshop takes me straight to a sleeve for the old R3 models and that is it...no bags available apparently other then the outdated sleeve.

    The online chat has been throwing me this...

    I have been trying for a week and this is all I get....This is a joke. Mobile edge wants 2x the price for the bags on Amazon....

    The 17 inch R4 won't fit in a 17 inch vindicator bag?

    They also jacked the price up you can get the 18 inch vindicator for like 50 or 60 Canadian dollars cheaper than the v2

    Hah! I never thought to check the Dell site...I was using Alienware.ca which is so out of date it's kind of sad.

    I received my R4 and it will fit in my Vindicator back pack but it is tight...so tight. I put it in the original Alienware cloth sleeve that came with my M17Xr4 and that fits pretty good albeit a little snug as well and then I have to stretch the corners of the backpack over the laptop but it will go...It's not something I will want to keep doing by any means.
