I think I have 3? All I ever use is my Domke 803 though.

Five Domke bags; Three Tamrac bags and a Tamrac backpack; a Lowepro backpack; a large Tenba i'm using for the Hasselblad; two Lowepro Nova 1 cases. And a lightweight Tamrac I keep flash gear in. And one of those canvas leica bags that let everything clank together inside.

Six if i count vintage Homa which is more an accessory than a camera bag. Othar than this - Tamrac x2, Lowepro x2 and Billingham Hadley pro

right now, the rd1 kit fits into the retro 5 (think tank) and the x100 plus flash etc. fit perfectly into the domke 5xa.
i use the 5xb for both the rd1 with 2 lenses plus the x100 kit.
the tamrac rally 5 fits the ipad plus camera(s) plus more...it might be my day 2 day work bag...looks good enough for meetings.

I've got a small mountain of bags, most of them just because they contained gear that was given to me, so they clutter the spare bedroom. None of these bags are particularly good or modern in design (keeping in mind that this equipment is all old manual focus film stuff) and unless I can give them away, they'll likely end up in the trash.
The bags I do use consist of a Tenba 995 purchased new in about 1990, that carries my SLR kit, another Tenba 995ish bag bought used for $10.00 that I refurbished and it now carries my rangefinder kit, and a Lowepro Trekker Backpack that a photobud essentially gave me for next to nothing (he asked a few dollars just so I could say I paid him for it) that I take on photo trips when I'm schlepping my 300 2.8 plus extra film and so on.
The Tenbas are made to last, and I assume I'll carry them as long as I continue to photograph.

I have about a dozen bags and an aluminium case. I've had a Billingham Hadley for years but this only gets used when I need the extra space, usually when travelling. I bought my second Hadley, a black small version and this is good too. I find using a Puleme 7518 insert in the small Hadley is nicer than the original. This insert btw fits most of my bags and can be recommended. The Billinghams are super at protecting your gear especially in rainy conditions.
A few weeks back I sold a Domke F803 and an Urban Explorer to a couple of members here. I didn't really get on with the 803 despite it's reputation.
I also have an F5xb, in blue, which I don't use at all. I find it a tad small and boxy for me. Possibly because I usually carry other non-photo stuff too.
I also have a BBB original, two Terraclime 100 and a Lowepro Exchange Messenger which all get some use.
I thnk that's more than enough bags and I hope not to buy any more. Don't hold me to that though🙂

Five are actually camera bags (4-Tamracs, 1 CPC)
Three are Army surplus bags that happen to work out fairly well...and then there are other surplus bags that didn't work...
I have a Tamrac bag that my wife bought me years ago but it has never been used...it's in my camera closet with gear I don't use...I use it for storage...

Currently I only have one, an old Lowepro Omni Trveler which is rubbish for pretty much anything except for storage. I've managed to sell off everything else recently.
I keep meaning to buy a Domke of some description but can't decide which one. Toying with the idea of either a F2, F3 or J3, but I don't hold much hope in any shops here having one, yet alone all three of them. I might have to take a punt online.

traveled a long way.. from Crumplers to Domkes and LowePros.. just found out that Billingham works for me.. so I'm using the Hadley Pro and the small version on an alternative day basis
