for the cost of what it would take to rent a bag you could buy a whole set of decent bags new - Zeitgeist Jul 31, 19:22 5
- uh, I'm sure rental cost is less. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 19:27 4
  - wedding dresses and tuxedos iirc rent for a third retail or basic wholesale cost three times then sold - Zeitgeist Jul 31, 19:37 3
    - if it costs $4K to rent a suitcase, that is a really stupid business model. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 19:55 2
      - head/desk...ok let's walk through this one more time.... - Zeitgeist Jul 31, 21:31 1
        
        oh, you said rent was $4k. whatever. anyway, I would not do itl. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 21:36
Are they really made better? I think getting a LV suitcase is just asking for it to get lost. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jul 31, 19:15 15
- that's from Three Kings. :) I don't know. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 19:16 14
  - Indeed. When you're carrying millions in Kuwaiti bouillon, you really need to know the fabric strength. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jul 31, 19:28 2
    - Kuwaiti? I thought it was Saddam's gold. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 19:30 1
      - that he stole from Kuwait -- nm - Zeitgeist Jul 31, 21:09
  - This is the one I've been looking at. -- (link) - MojaveMeg Jul 31, 19:20 10
    - I don't know how often you fly, but in my experience it is worth getting better quality for flying. Have seen too many suitcases arrive at JFK - loosilu Jul 31, 19:29
    - size of suitcase depends for me if I'm driving or flying, and what I plan to do when there. - loosilu Jul 31, 19:28 6
      - also, for flying, I never ever buy black. Always a color. The black suitcases all look alike. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 19:32 5
        
        That's why I'm looking at the green. I have a larger one which is a little too large. I'm thinking the 25" and a carry-on will work best for me. - MojaveMeg Jul 31, 19:41 4
        
        I think my biggest suitcase is 25". can't deal with bigger no matter what the length of the trip. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 19:55 3
        
        ps. Don't turn into my mom! she carries like 8 or 12 small bags on road trips. it is a family joke. -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 20:16 2
        
        Trust me, I travel light :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Jul 31, 20:47 1
        
        I keep trying to tell Mom, you are not going to Mars. You don't have to bring the ENTIRE medicine cabinet. :) -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 20:52
    - that looks like standard carry-on size...you wouldn't necessarily be bound by that max unless you expect to fly one day -- nm - Zeitgeist Jul 31, 19:26 1
      - does the description explicitly say it is carry on size? -- nm - loosilu Jul 31, 19:30
