[Leica] Bags

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

Nothing beats the "case within the case" scenario.
I'm a strong believer in that.
A case can be made for that fact.
Put a weak case inside another week case and it beats one strong case
anyday.
Any UPS guy will tell you that.

Any old padding between the layers seems fine.

And have the outer case or box scream "cheap"
While the inter case can then scream "get me out!".
