there are reusable zip ties? whoa-- mind blown. I've a stash of the regular 
one-use... when they run out I'll have a look.

Back on topic: I have a medium and large Wald, and I just got a large 
shopsack. My first question is: what do you intend to carry? 

I use it for extra grocery hauling space and taking packages to the post 
office (boxes and large/XL envelopes). For this, the large is much better. 
The shopsack is really nice for groceries. I've also found the large space 
better for restaurant take-out runs; the medium didn't have enough area. 
Maybe I'm also a lousy packer...

I do agree with others that the large feels less sturdy. To waffle again, 
I'm pretty sure I'll get a med shopsack to go with my med Wald.
