A good quality messenger bag that'll fit a 13" laptop and features several compartments with waterproofing thanks to the 650D Oxford cloth. If you order 2 you'll get an additional 10% off. Also on sale is the 90FUN Shoulder Bag.
90FUN is a Xiaomi sub-brand who make most of Xiaomi's wallets, bags and luggage.
This video in Russian and AliExpress model show it off in action.
Joybuy is the English portal of JD.com and accept Paypal. AU$ based on current Mastercard rate at time of posting.
Must be doing something wrong…not seeing the US14.02, is there a coupon?
$13.99 + $0.03 shipping. Make sure Light Grey (second one) is selected.
Cheers…. once selected I had to press ok pretty fast…..the price changed to 17 again if I waited too long….weird stuff….but got one in the end.
Cheers clear
Is "messenger bag" the new fun way to describe a briefcase?
Since when do briefcases have shoulder straps?
Messenger bag AKA man bag AKA murse.
Where have you been?
AU$19.32 but oh well..
AU$ based on current Mastercard rate at time of posting.
Joybuy and Paypal will have inflated rates. I base it off Mastercard as it's the current exchange rate and people normally have currency conversion free CCs and Debit cards.
About currency conversion free Debit cards, which ones are they? Always want to know. Don't trust myself with CCs LOL
There's this one. Says $0 overseas purchase fees https://www.macquarie.com/au/personal/bank-accounts/transact…
These don’t look too bad…
Any good Xiaomi backpacks that suit 13 to 15 inch laptops? I really need one to help with messenger bags wrecking my back/shoulders.
Dang, I didn't think about that, how heavy is your messenger bag?
This one looks smaller so maybe only fits a 13" laptop plus a book or two (no water bottle) so I didn't think it'd get that heavy. I think that's the idea of a messenger bag, just to carry the essentials.
I have a xiaomi brand urban backpack (same colour) bigger but more expensive. I put more stuff in it and it's pretty heavy now, both shoulder straps aren't cushiony enough still hurts.
Not sure what Chinese/cheap bag brands have good shoulder strap/ergonomics.
It weighs 625g according to the promotional images on Joybuy.
Ok, is it just me who sees 'joybear' (NSFW) every time I see 'Joybuy'?
Oh no? Just me? Just me then.
Seems to me like this pricing is for a shoulder bag only, messenger bag is more and is a different option. Disregard, mobile site is just finicky it seems, worked after a few reloads.
Wifi compatible?
Are these any good? I'm just in Hong Kong and saw them at the mi shop
You're probably in a better position to tell us if they're any good then, isn't it? :P
i can confirm these are QC 3.0
I like the look of this, is there a 15" version?
No one mentioned the shoulder bag?
I didn't even realise it was on sale oops. I better go add that.
The website keeps converting New South Wales into 2457 when I go to checkout which paypal then doesn't like.
I had the same issue with an ACT postcode.
That's normal. Same thing happened when I got cables from them.
Weird. No problem with receiving your cables I take it? I was a bit hesitant to order given there’d be two postcodes and no state on the address label.
Support confirmed it was fine when I asked and I just checked the packaging which has New South Wales printed on the label.
Awesome, thanks mate,
After selecting one messenger one shoulder, I didn't get 10 pct disc…. Sad….
@clear actually, the 10% off works for ANY 90fun items from this store. so i put one messager and one shoulder, go to cart, select promotion from drip down menu, and voila, each bag become US$12.59
or you can buy one bag and one wallet (the one on promo, US 9.99)
Will it fit a surface laptop, or is it a snug 13"?
Would it fit a lunch box?
Check the dimensions on Joybuy and look at the pics i found from reviews and work it out.
no if the lunch box is for a giant.
Wonder if the shoulder bag can fit an iPad Pro?
Joy buy takes 6 weeks for delivery anyone?
It's like all shipping from China. It could take a month or it could take less.
Seems good. We'll see if it fits a Lenovo Yoga 900.
Where are the dimensions?
The package size says Package Size : 20.0cm x 15.0cm x 8.0cm but I'm assuming that's because they fold up the bag.
It looks like it can easily fit A4 size books so that can't be the actual size.
The images in the description show the dimensions.

Received today. Bought one messenger one shoulder but received two shoulders.
Dispute in progress but initially they asked did i make video when opening the parcel. Wtf. I took photos instead.
Will be interesting to see how it goes. I haven't come across a dispute with them yet.
I just got mine. Ordered the messenger bag and received the shoulder bag.
Damn…. Maybe they only have shoulder and gave them regardless the order.
They sent me a messager instead of a shoulder, did you want to swap?
Damn, I'm too slow.
Beware people take video when opening the parcel just incase
Keen to swap? I was sent a messager bag
Yes!
yep, i'm happy to swap if i get no joy from joy buy
me and mrsnuffle already exchanged ours, so you need to find others who got messangers.. which is rare mostly got shoulders////
Just received a shoulder bag instead of the messenger bag i ordered…
Yup, received a shoulder bag instead of a messenger bag. Took a video of the opening as advised here.
same boat… received two stupid shoulder bags. What the hell!! i didn't take a video. but i can probs re-do it… What the hell am i supposed to do with two tiny bags!
You should contact them.
Yep lodged a dispute through the joybuy website, note: the option was only available when I logged in via a computer (I.e., the option didn't appear when I logged into the joy buy site via iPad)
So weird, I bought one messenger bag, but they sent me two shoulder bags.
Good luck everyone.
Aha. I was looking on Android and couldn't find the dispute thing. I'll check on a PC, thanks for the tip
Yep also got wrong bag. I already have a shoulder bag! I needed a messenger bag.
The order email says to contact them at [email protected] [sic] which doesn't fill me with confidence.
go to the website log in go to my order history or something like that, then you can start dispute process within.
I also received a shoulder bag instead of a messenger bag on the 25th.
I raised a dispute on the day it arrived (with images rather than a video) and it's been updated with this today:
"Dear customer, please rest assured that we will help issue the full refund for you. The refund period for PayPal is 3-5 working days. Please be patient and feel free to check your account in the near future. Thank you"
Same boat as you. What a shitty vendor, I still want that messenger bag and not pay a stupid amount.
90FUN were responsible for this screw up as it was their store and not Joybuy themselves. At least JD are acknowledging the problem and doing something about it.
Not the "sorry dear accept $3US refund for inconvenience".
How do you lodge a dispute with 90Fun?
That's actually what I am getting:
"We are sinserely sorry for that. Please accept our apology for refunding you $5 as compensation. Thanks and best regards."
@Worf: You have to go through Joybuy's dispute system. Joybuy is similar to AliExpress and Amazon in that they're made up of multiple different sellers. Except in this case Joybuy manage disputes for the stores instead.
@Sheppy: Time to ask why others are getting refunded and how that's not acceptable because it's not what you ordered etc etc.
They admitted their mistake in my dispute, but still offered only $5 partial refund…wtf
Dear customer, We are sorry for the mistake because we put a wrong product id in the system, which caused many orders wrong. We are sinserely sorry for that. Please accept our apology for refunding you $5 as compensation. Thanks and best regards.
I replied i would accept nothing less than a full refund or replacement to be sent.
$9 for an unusable laptop bag is unacceptable. I rejected that offer and will see what they have to say but I suspect I'll have to go through PayPal to resolve it.
It's disappointing as it is a nice bag and is the cheapest around. I may try buying another…
@phil1311: To be fair their next reply was to advise a full refund had been processed. Maybe I re-gift this little shoulder bag to someone for xmas haha
@bretto: Joybuy, not 90fun, said they'd refund me. Now to play the waiting game.
If you are after the messenger bag, I was in touch with someone here to get theirs but I've got trouble getting into Syd CBD during working hours. Not sure if they've made separate arrangements though.
Got my paypal full refund today :)
received today. shoulder bag instead of messenger. dispute lodged with photos. lets see.
if they offer $5 or something, how do I escalate for JD to step in ? or is paypal the way to go ?
If they're uncooperative then PP is your next option.
Mine is proposing a full refund.
Just wondering, did your postal tracking correctly report the status of your bag?
tracking was correct for me.
Anyone still yet to get theirs? My tracking shows as "delivered" on the 30th on 17track but the delivery location is the wrong suburb.
Must have been delivered to incorrect address. does your street exist in the suburb shown in tracking ?
(profanity) I think I worked it out. The website/merchant completely butchers the second address line and leaves it out.
Same here. Ordered messenger bag and received shoulder bag. I raised a dispute in JD and they offered $5. I replied asking for full refund or send the correct one + postage to return the wrong shoulder bag to them. Will see how they reply.
The Shoulder bag is cheaper than the messenger bag so maybe they are sending the shoulder bag and hoping everyone just accepts the $5 refund and they will still make a profit after the refund.
same for me too. they sent shoulder bag. any Joubuy rep here to help please?
Same happened to me. Disputed via PayPal. They offered a full refund immidiately. I got my money back this morning.
So at the end it's free bag for many… Not bad!
The shoulder bag is too small to be of any use to me. I paid by credit card and am waiting for the refund. Anyone want to trade a couple of eneloops for the shoulder bag, if so private message me.
Any follow-up? anyone received the full refund?
They said they’ll refund me. No sign of the dollars though. They said it will take 3-5 days… I paid by credit card. Will keep you guys updated.
I received my refund today. Got an email saying i've been refunded. Took approx 3 or so days.
How did you pay? PayPal or credit card? I'm still waiting on my refund, it's been 4 business days since I received their email advising that I'd be refunded.
Thanks OP.
