Wrong bag, great price!

CRUMPLER 7 MILLION DOLLAR WON'T HOLD A SONY PMW-EX1 R
I bought the Crumpler Seven Million Dollar bag and just received it. One of the main reasons for buying it was that it would hold my Sony PMW-EX1R. But it doesn't... And I'm to blame because I didn't read the specs carefully enough.(it's a bit confusing because different sites will give you different specs.)
So now I'm stuck with a bag that won't do what I bought it for. I was going to sell it right away but I really like the look of this bag and it has some features my Crumpler 8000 doesn't have. For one, it's bigger. Secondly, it has more pockets. Thirdly, it has  a few nice other features like loops for hanging a monopod on and the choice not to use velcro (which makes a lot of noise when you may not want that). So I'll probably sell my Messenger Boy 8000 and keep this one.
(yes, Ton, you were right, don't rub it in! ;-)

Oh, and if you want to go ahead an buy this bag, I found it more than $10,- cheaper than the already great price I got at Oribags! 

A NICE FEATURE: TOP CARRYING HANDLE
MESH POCKETS FOR QUICK ACCESS
ATTACH A POD, MONO OR TRI (NO 'I')
