I don't live in the USA. I took a round-trip flight to Los Angeles. Stayed at an airport hotel, where the Rimowa district manager hand delivered the Rimowa I ordered over the phone 😀 The price at a department store where I live was a lot higher and I wanted to guarantee that they had the model I was looking to purchase. It was worth the flight.
