How do you like it? Thinking of getting one. It will go in my Wald 137 basket.

I never saw a VO bag. I think you have to buy Crown Royal to get a bag....

Seagram's is what came up in my mind too when I saw VO in the title.

$125 is a lot for a bag that goes on a platform rack and doesn't have much in the way of extra pockets (at least I wouldn't spend that much). REI sells a bag (the Beyonder) that's a bit smaller (22L vs 29L) for only $39. And money-mizer-me uses a $20 Igloo soft-sided cooler (I think its an 18-can size) I got at Target that fits on my front rack nicely with a bungee cord (or two). I could easily add an extra pouch for small stuff to the REI or Igloo bags

I will have never guessed properly if skidder hadn't provided so many clues. Apologies if I led your post astray with the humor and your question doesn't get answered properly to your satisfaction.

I've ordered stuff from them in the past (Dia-Compe brake levers to keep two bicycles as "period correct" as possible, plus other things) but they've gotten quite expensive since then. And by that I mean even though all parts brands have gone up in price, V.O's stuff has gone up even more.
