Also, Jay, if you earned alot of money and could afford a jet, you wouldnt need to carry your own luggage so i’m sure you wouldnt care what it looked like.

Therefore, it doesn't really matter if you have a 20dollar or 2000dollar luggage inside the airplane hold. I personally just bought a replica Pegase 60 for under 300 dollars, it's as good as authentic one, and I won't go mental if it gets damaged.. :) I have had a LV holdal in use for almost 10 years, (it's a replica as well and cost about 150 dollars), and althought it's been thrown around in airports around the world, it's still in excellent condition. I guess they even make the LV replicas great quality... ? I also have authentic LV bag, and it's aged worse in my opinion (the leather has gone too dark)... :wink: The airlines are liable to pay for your luggage if it gets damaged.

I have a hard side LV Jumelle (special order) and I use it on weekend driving getaways--never to be checked in. When traveling internationally, you are a target and expect your cab ride to be marked up. I traded in my Keepall for a Mulholland Brothers carry on (still maintaining the quality and luxury but a bit more understated).

It is too showy. The best luxury luggage burn some money on is Globe Trotter Luggage. The scratches and tears give it character. Also anyone who can spend thousands of dollars on luggage should be on a private jet not in the cowherd. I would never buy Louis Vuitton luggage. It is too showy.

However, if I had tons of money to burn... why not!
