Do people really spend $150 on a sport climbing harness? Wow, I have never spent more than $35 and have always been able to find a petzl harness on sale no problem.

spend the extra and get the corax2, the sama doesn't have adjustable leg loops, which can be a pain in the ass.

No, the list is 135 and many places online have them for 99. They are comfortable and a lot of people wear them, however there are probably many of those who are using pro deals to get them.

I just got the BD Chaos and I couldn't be happier...... although it was $125. Worth every penny though.

Go with arteryx or petzl. Can't go wrong. I've had misty mountain,Petzl,Metolius and BD. I just spent $125 on a metolius waldo. If you're going light weight then go with Petzl or BD. If you're going with comfort and longevity go with arcteryx or petzl.
