I ordered my 2MM gift on Feb 19 -- selected the Tumi V3 international. Arrived on Feb 26. I got around to opening the box today -- looks nice and is pretty light. Will "test" pack it with my normal travel load and then decide whether to keep or sell.
I've been doing all my traveling (including a 5 week trip that went to Vietnam and Australia in August, so summer and winter) with an e-bags Weekender Convertible that I paid $79 for in 2011. (Ebags replaced has replaced it twice, lifetime warranty -- once because a handle was ripped by the airlines, once because a seam ripped on the inside.) No wheels but that keeps me packing light.
So I need to decide if I really want to have wheeled luggage. I still have the Hartmann that I got when I hit 1 MM -- maybe used it once, but it isn't a carry on.
I doubt I'll make it to 3MM.
