Hiya and welcome into The Hub
I can sense your excitement to get out detecting just through your words, you will soon be hooked!
I dont think Nokta do a bag as standard for the simplex, so it looks as though you are going to have to improvise
Not sure if a guitar bag would hold it if the machine was collapsed down?
Hopefuly someone sensible comes along with a more efficient solution

I am not known for my ID skills, but i make a cracking brew

I bought a bag on eBay for my deus from a lady who makes them.Well made and has a pocket on the front for headphones. Not sure what size the simplex collapses down to but if it’s a similar size it might be worth a look.
Search for xp deus bag on eBay, it’s camo and £30 . You could message the lady to see if she could make one to suit if it’s not suitable.

Hello and welcome
There are two ways you can go on this - a specialised bag or a standard bag you can work with. I've gone the standard bag route, a (new) 15L rucksack I picked up for a tenner which is plenty big enough to stuff my Deus and assorted accoutrements in and with pockets to spare.
Personally, I'd rather spend my hard-earned on good equipment rather than something to tote it about in, but each to their own

Not sure how short your machine will retract when not in use, I use a tennis racket bag for my detector and all the bits and pieces, might be an alternative
Bought it from sports direct for £15 some while ago

It is quite usual to just remove the lower stem for a smaller flatter package that will fit into a backpack. Though it will likely fit a full size detector bag. Best to just measure it and find a bag of suitable size. 

Good things come to those who wait.

Quite agree with the Steve and Easy above. I used to fly and if you stuck "aero" in front of anything (such as engine oil) the price quadrupled and I think detecting is going much the same way with regards accessories. Some are brand fanbois and must have the "proper" gear and others make do.
