Tumi's warranty does not justify their very high prices at this point.

Sadly, like so many other quality synonymous names from the past, it's all fumes and status now.

The quality of Tumi bags is fine, but not outstanding. And the warranty is just crap.

Briggs and Riley is pretty much the last man standing that offers a first class warranty at an acceptable (not cheap, but reasonable) price. And my experiences with Briggs and Riley have all been stellar--no quality related issues. I wish they were more fashionable (to be generous), but you can't have everything.

Give the Tumi craptastic warranty, you might as well buy whatever $100 bag Costco is selling this month and use their generous return policy for your warranty.
