B&R is a good idea.... or my solution is to get the absolute ugliest piece of junk you can find. I have a neon-green and blue garment bag... basic as you can get and not a lot of good organizational convieniences. It's got several hundreds of thousand miles on it, never gets lost, never gets damaged, and on those occasions where I check it, it's amazingly easy to spot. Hell... I can sit in the terminal or on the plane and spot it in the stack of baggage on the truck loading it all up.... in the deep dark of night during blizzard conditions.

I do want to upgrade, but I'd really prefer to find something every bit as ugly.
