Macpac backpack stay broken

My 15 year-old Macpac overnight pack has a vertical aluminium stay broken, about 10cm down from the top. A few experienced walkers present were confident Macpac would cover it under a warranty. Thoughts?
I'm not confident...

You might be able to get something like that from Bunnings...

I agree with both Franco and wayno.
Talk to Macpac and if that doesn't work, a replacement piece of aluminium to match will be easy to get at most hardware stores.
Matching the stiffness will be the key.

if you do have to replace one, I'd say do both. the only person I know who didn't get a warranty repair from macpac is an instructor I know who was told after the 12-15th repair that he had gotten the last one. his pack is very, very old.
