Best place to buy B&R U122CX

Looking to replace my older TP 22" with the B&R. I've been doing some longer trips recently and would like to upgrade. Where can I find the best price on B&R luggage?

The prices are locked in by B&R so you'll pay the same no matter where you buy it. Unless you have a chummy relationship with a local luggage shop, no discounting on the U122CX will occur.

Look for free shipping, that's about it.

I was looking for the same type of bag. There is an eBay listing for $375 Buy-It-Now but it's located in USA (TX) and doesn't help me But it is new and it has a good price I think

In the DFW area we have a couple of stores call 'Sam Moon". I have found B&R at discounted prices at this store. They carry a nice selection, not everything but is is worth a look if you can find one of these stores.

Could be worse. You could live in the UK.

This case is going for around £280 on amazon.com ($469) Vs. £399 on Amazon.co.uk.

Easy for me to pack a cheap bag, take a planned trip to the US and buy one over there and save a load.
(Must admit, back in March, it was being sold for £320 at Heathrow - 20% off at Rolling Luggage)

May look in Nordstrom Rack first to see what offers they have or if anything else looks good (present price for this case is £297 so Amazon.com is cheaper). (Nordstrom want £100 in shipping and taxes to ship to the UK on top of that price so it works out the same as buying it here in the first place)

I bought my last Briggs & Riley bag at Nordstrom. Free shipping (or they may have it in stock at your nearest store). They have a generous returns policy, and as a cardholder I get points

If you don't need it for any close-in scheduled travel, you can watch on Amazon. I got mine there for 20% off during a sale several months ago.

Don't know how frequently that happens, but when I saw it, I jumped.

I got a discontinued B&R (baseline 20in) for $149, no tax and free steeping at Lazar Luggage online. Check their store, great service and decent prices.
