Well, I just busted a zipper on my TravelPro after just six months. And while this is definitely repairable, the time and effort to get it to the shop may just not be worth it.

Here's my question: Do I fix it (and continue to do so) OR buy cheaper, no-frills bags and treat them as disposable OR shell out money for something built like a tank?

I travel a few times a month, try to travel light but will occasionally check my bag (the horror!) when it's free and convenient...

I've had Costco bags at half the price that I was happy with. I'm also considering going with something like a Red Oxx Sky Train.

Any help is much appreciated!
