I've had a Tumi over the shoulder bag for a few years now and a few hundred thousand miles later I'm looking for a companion for it. I've had a look round and with BAA seeing sense (more UK originating travel in the near future) I think a 22" rollaboard is just the ticket.

Just a few miles form where I live is a Nordstrom and a luggage store next door, both stocking Tumi. Both at MSRP. Up in Leesburg (a good 3hrs away) I've got an outlet.

I've taken a quick breeze around the internet and quite a few sites I've been to just point back to the Tumi site.

Anyone else been in a similar situation with purchasing Tumi?
Have you succeeded in getting stores to battle it out on price or are Tumi pretty protective of their price?
As for the outlet I'm almost risking a trip up there on the back of them having the piece in stock. Aren't Tumi outlets seconds anyway?

Thanks for your help

P.S. Great idea for a forum! Didn't realise this was here until I did a search.
