My inventory has become a complete disaster trying to save my task items to max rep for all of the different factions, not to mention storing them for alts. I sell extra full stacks on the ah, but it still doesn't clear up enough room. As I understand it, they were available for a limited time special. They are sorely needed, and you would have a steady stream of income if they were made available at all times. We all need them. When inventory management starts to get out of control, it is often enough for me to drop an mmo. I don't want to play an inventory management sim. Please, for the love of Anu, make them available!
I believe they have veered away offering carry-all promotions within the lotro store and now plan to offer them within expansion bundles. In fact, you can still buy Three Peaks Collector's Edition and obtain a selection carry-all box that provides you a crafting, task, essence and tracery, instrument, or housing decoration carry-all (which was offered freely during the Anniversary Event a few months ago). Gundabad offers the dye carry-all. I'm not saying that they won't ever offer them in the store, but chances are they might decide to just stick it as a bonus with the next mini-expansion bundle.
Many times when I hear people having issues with inventory, it is because they are still F2P. One month subscription would boost inventory from 45 to 75 and give you three more slots to add characters that can hold items for you. Buying a house can also give you plenty of additional storage.

I am sure that if SSG make available all already existing carry all bags kinds at LOTRO store, people will buy them a lot.

It seems that other than the crafting carry-alls, the carry-alls are tied to real money purchases. There are only 3 ways LOTRO provides real money to the company, the purchase of LOTRO point packages/supporter packs, the purchase of VIP membership, the purchase of expansions from the market. For the people that grind LP to trade for items in the in-game store, there is no cash benefit for the company.
By limiting the availability of carry-alls in the in-game store, they can probably maximize the perceived value of the higher priced expansion packs that contain a large carry-all selection box and perhaps hopefully sell more of the collector and ultimate packs.
Yeah, that's one I'd like to see too. I have a bunch of the crafting ones from the store but a large task bag would be nice. I think task turn-in items are eating up 30-40 slots in my shared storage right now.
If they had added furniture or task carry-alls to the incentives for making a donation to the Extra Life drive, the donations would probably go through the roof, lol.
