August engagement giveaway came in! 🔥
Huge shout out to the Hobbi team for putting these engagement giveaways together. I ended up winning both the Zion Cases backpack and the Zion Cases card case, and honestly these are going to get a TON of use. The backpack is already looking like the new card-show travel bag. <div>It’s pretty cool that just being active, commenting and interacting with the community can turn into something like this. Definitely makes the daily Hobbi scrolling a little more rewarding. </div><div>Appreciate the prizes and the community! Now I just need to figure out what cards are worthy of making the first trip in the new gear. </div><div>Anyone else win anything from the August giveaway?</div>

I love my backpack for sure! Need to take it to a card show soon!
-
for sure do.. i think the only thing i would have changed with them is the insert that holds cards. wish it was a different style but the way i would want i think the back would have to be thicker. but they for sure look sweet and i soon to hope to use mine too
-
Yesh I like the case that comes in it for sure just dont have enough slabs for it and normally have a smaller bag for shows but may start taking the backpack
-
well that just mean not enough slabs you need more hahaha..
-
Yeah for sure! Already have a list of cards to grade
-
there ya go.. psa or degree or someone new?
-
Degree for PC and some with PSA for potential selling
-
-
I like that the case fits perfectly but I’m definitely going to have to build up the slab collection before I can put it to its full potential.
-
Yeah same here! If nothing else just have another slab case!
-
-
-
Yeah, I can see what you mean. The card insert is probably the one part where I’d want a little more flexibility too. But I think making it thicker would start defeating the whole point of keeping the bag slim and easy to carry.
-
-
Same here! 😂 It’s definitely getting promoted from “new backpack” to “official card show gear.” I’m curious how much I can actually fit in it without turning it into a 30-pound slab of cardboard
-
Yeah its very spacious for sure! I’m sure you can fit a good bit of stuff in there.
-
Yeah, that’s what surprised me too! It has way more room than I expected, which is probably dangerous for me at a card show lol.
More space means more cards, more slabs… and inevitably more stuff I absolutely did not plan on buying.

-
Can’t wait to see that updated picture after a show!
-
I’ve already starting taking it to work. It’s incredibly comfortable and doesn’t make you hot all hell on you back like other bags I’ve had
-
I’ve never tried their backpack but I have no doubt it works well! Breaking it in while going to work, I like it.
-

-
Nice! The red looks great! Congrats!
-
it sure does and i should have gotten the red..
-
Thank you! I was pretty pumped when it showed up. Definitely feels like the right color for taking to card shows. Matches my Cincy reds XL case too. Now I just need to put it to work!
-
-
-
the red stands outt!!!!!
-
Yeah i was afraid it would be loud but I think it stands out nicely, loving how comfortable it is. I’m going to use it for work too,
-
sweet is it padded on the strapps? like the nike ones?
-
Yeah, it’s incredibly comfortable. Best backpack I’ve had
-
-
-
-
that bag like mine i think has the insert in it for cards but can come out and just be a backpack or cross body back to hold things.. and glad you got the display case. i was for sure thought i was winning that but i know youll for sure put it to good use.
-
Yeah I planned on reviewing it for my You tube. Super functional for a card collector.
-
Look forward to the review! Looks comfortable and functional.
-
Absolutely! I’m looking forward to putting it through a real card show test and seeing how it holds up once it’s loaded down with slabs. The comfort and storage are definitely the two things I’m most curious about.
I’ll have to report back after I’ve actually put it to work!
-
We all wait for the the in-depth review!
-
-
-
thats great.. i need to do that for my channel. i think yours is a little bigger then mine. i cant remember if they had different sizes
-
The only real decision is which color you want… and then figuring out how quickly you can fill it with cards. LOL
-
thats true. but hey there was color options at least.
-
-
-
Looking forward to watching the detailed review after it has been used at shows
-
-
-
Zion makes solid gear all around. I use their cases and they are worth every penny!
-
The quality of this stuff is top notch for sure
-
yeah it seems that they do.. not the cheapest but still a great product so far haha
-
No not the cheapest, but I’ve purchased other cases and then I bought the Zion and you can tell the difference right away.
-
That’s the thing that stands out to me too. Sometimes you don’t realize how much of a difference the build quality makes until you put two of them side by side.
-
-
-
Agreed! Most of my gear I have gotten through this site but some I have bought based on how much I liked the products I’ve won
-
lol I am def brand committed to Zion. They just make the best travel gear and no one can hold a torch to Magpros
-
-
-
For sure! The cases are light and strong whereas the other cases I’ve purchased have been heavy without cards in them.
-
yeah for sure want the case to be light since it only gets heavier with things in it
-
I was surprised that even loaded up how nice it still felt to carry
-
-
I loaded it down the other day just to see how it carries and even loaded down with my camera gear, laptop, and 2 row case it was still comfortable to carry
-
This is very good to know, just in case I’m in need of a new backpack. Thanks for letting us know!
-
It’s very effective as just a backpack but the added bonus of card space. Def reccommend
-
-
i had to go look and i got one of the mini ones. shoulder strap to wear like a crossbody.. still has some decent room to it
-
-
-
That’s pretty sweet! I ended up getting a case of toploaders with sleeves. They’re a little less photogenic than the backpack, but will look very nice when I get some cards into them.
-
hey thats still a nice score.. im gonna need to reup my top loaders and sleeves soon
-
Hey, a case of toploaders and sleeves may not be as photogenic, but that’s the kind of prize that’s going to get used constantly!
-
Yeah, no argument there. Everything that goes into my PC gets toploaded at the least so I go through a fair amount of them. Will certainly come in handy.
-
Same here! Pretty much everything that goes into my PC gets a top loader at minimum. That’s why I love the binder I got. It fits top loaded cards not just penny sleeved
-
put some cards in them and make them photogenic. lets see some put to use
