Well, you will have noticed that the Travelpro Plat5 has all but disappeared from the internet. It is still available but now goes for a higher price than what I bought it for which was around $175. Also you will mostly find it in Aspen (a nice light grey) or red, which is not so great, IMHO. Black is rather hard to find.

So I thought I'd post some bags that have a similar layout and quality and that are equally really nice deals because they are on the way out.

One is the Revolution XT 22 incher from Pathfinder for $120:

The other is the Andiamo Bravo Auto-expand 22 incher for $230:

Both are equally rich in features and quality as the TP and the layout is similar. Caveat: These are brands from the Paragon/Pathfinder group that has gone under. It is very likely that no warranty work will be done on those. Still, if the reviews and my personal experience with Andiamo and the top-of-the-line Pathfinder are worth anything, those are really good deals and a warranty should not be that important.

Of course, the usual care rules apply.
