Yep. The last 3 bags I bought in 2013 cost: $340, $395, and $270. I looked for all 3 on eBay and Craigslist and struck out, so I paid full price. If I had found any one of these bags in used (but good-excellent condition), then I would have bought them.
As a matter of fact, the most recent piece of luggage that I bought cost $270 (new), but recently sold on eBay for $135. The condition was "excellent". The seller hardly used it and just wanted it out of the closet. I would have happily bought it if I had seen the auction before it expired.
