Hello,
Since I am a retard when it comes to sizing by checking the specs only, I have been looking over the "show me your camera bag" thread; but I am still clueless. Please recommend me couple of bags to check it over.

I like sling, shoulder or sling/backpack combo (like kata 3n1) bags, prefer compact but need some room, too. I never hike, I don't like backpacks or pelican like baggages (no offense). I don't need room for a laptop. My budget is up to $120 (new or used). Retro looks are OK.

Stuff:

camera and lenses -
5d with 24-105
super takumar 28mm f3.5
leitz summicron-r 50mm f2
zuiko 100mm f2.8
super takumar 135mm f3.5
super takumar 200mm f4

flash -
ex550 flash

others -
leica r to eos adapter
om to eos adapter
m42 to eos adapter
charger

optional -
meyer oreston 50mm f1.8
helios 58mm f2
zuiko 50mm f1.8

THANKS in advance.

Go with the classics - a Domke F2 will be an excellent choice for both holding and organizing that.

I second the Domke F2. I just got mine and I love it.

just pulled the trigger on the lowepro flipside 300 (http://products.lowepro.com/product/Flipside-300,2083,14.htm) for $53 from amazon... I believe it will be sufficient for several years (hopefully)
