Since when? I bought Tumi Tech roller bag at Costco in December. Didn't look last time I was there, but any change must be very recent.
So no more Tumi for me, I guess only their prices are upscale.
I agree. I wasn't going to buy Tumi this time around - didn't see the value relative to pricing on Costco's Kirkland brand - but the pricing at Costco ended up to be a relatively small premium and the Costco/Kirkland was out of stock.
