Was anyone saying that the bag company was tracking the guy? It sounds to me like this is just a quiet way to confirm that it was their bag in case all the comments about this being the new hot fashion play out.

I already don't understand why anyone would overpay for a "designer" anything - I know their reasoning, it's just stupid though. So I extra can't understand why anyone would buy an overpriced, analog product that goes out of it's way to digitally track you. I mean my phone I get, but a bag? I can get a bag dirt cheap that won't tell the company or cops where I am.
It doesnt digitally track you. It's tag has a number that they record with your name when you purchase, even if you don't register the warranty.
I don't have a peak bag, but I do have osprey and chrome, which honor lifetime guarantees. Their (not old) bags have codes inside that are used in case of repair/replacement.
Osprey is fantastic. It seems like a lot of people in the hiking community scoff at them, either for being too expensive or not ultralight, but it's really hard to beat their promise to fix any bag, no questions asked. I have the Atmos AG 65L, and it's great. It literally has everything I think I could possibly want in a bag I have to live out of for a week.
I am always keeping an eye out for used ones or clearance prices, I never paid full price for mine. And the ultralight crowd is always hard to please, it's not like their bags are heavy, but all it takes is some buckles and zippers to be "too heavy" lol
I have never found a better brand for ergonomics and comfort. I have the Fairview 55 and Farpoint 70, specifically because I love the zip off daybag design.
I wonder is this will help or hurt the sales of that particular backpack. Could be a break even.
