Nice find. Would be a great bag for most any camera gear but to bad for me the shipping is a killer

FedEx International Priority

Look at the bright side. It's still under the original price.

No need, I find using my trusted pillow case tied to the end of a stick works great

If you tie another pillow case to the other end, it balances out and is easier to carry.

Shame Canada has those kinds of fees.

Not only the extra shipping charges, you have to add in the exchange rate also. Not worth it for me to shop States side any more.

A lot of people close to the border have secondary mailing addresses in the U.S (I'm sure you already know that) for that purpose. We used to cross it often for cigs and booze when I lived in southern Ontario.

Ya we have Rydens border store we can have stuff shipped to but I prefer to shop in Canada and support our country. I would still have to pay the exchange which does not make it worth my while.

Ryden's Border Store

Open every day from 6am to 8pm, open all holidays except Christmas. Ryden's Border Store has been family owned since 1947. We're located 1/2 mile from the US/Canadian border in Grand Portage, Minnesota.

But does the XSP actually fit? I tried a Droneguard Pro 450 last year and had to send it back because the XSP was too tall.

Tufargon · Jan 1, 2020

I don't have one so I can't say yes or no. I just know the Phantom and XSP are almost identical in size so I would guess it would fit perfectly.

Not quite. The XSP is a bit taller and wider than the Phantom 3 series.

Tufargon · Jan 1, 2020

Hence the "almost identical".

Actually I've heard of people buying these for the XSP without complaints of fit but I could be wrong. If I were looking for something like this I'd definately take the chance in hopes of not having to return it.
The deal is way over now but you still see it come up on Slickdeals once in a while.

Meh, I took a chance and ordered one with 2 hours to spare (actually it's still live as of right now).
I did find a picture on the Best Buy site posted by someone who had put an XSP in it, so it must fit.

I ordered one, the only issue is the phone/tablet holder is a tough fit because I guess the Phantom's doesn't stick out like that. Here's a picture of it with the X-Star on top with the Lume Cubes my wife got me for Christmas. I'll add a picture of it with everything crammed in there when I get a chance.
