Found this great deal while hunting for a samsonite suitcase. Think it's quite a steal given that the medium go for >$400 already.
Includes 10 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY.
CamelCamelCamel.
3-piece set 20/24/28 in Nova Teal for $621.87
20": 55.88 x 35.56 x 22.86 cm, 3.4 kg, $266.13 alone in the same listing right now, 1 left in stock
24": 67.31 x 41.91 x 45.09 cm, 4.1 kg, $386.60 alone in the same listing
Thanks. 3.4kg for a carry on is a bit heavy, isn't it?
Pretty heavy, esp. for JetStar where you get 7kg carry on and they actually weigh it.
can the smaller one be used as a carry on?
Looks like it:
"SET INCLUDES 20" Carry On (meets carry-on size restrictions for those traveling domestically and looking to stay light)"
Ah thank you. Wondering if I should get this… I don't travel much but I don't own any travel bags…
At 3.4 kg it's pretty heavy for a carry-on, but depends on your needs.
@pizzaguy: Thats nearly half your allowed carry-on weigh.
Better off with any decent sized backpack. 7kg is not that heavy to strap to you back for most people.
@xoom: Yeah, that's 100% true for Jetstar, other cheap airlines and some airline's lowest-tier tickets.
Are these good compared the cheaper ones like around $100 for 28 inch?
Reviews put me off…no lock on the smaller bag and seem to damage easily.
Large bag is slightly too small for what I am looking for, for those who are actively searching for good deals on Samsonite, Costco is pretty unbeatable in AU.
Eh only decent price on 20/24. Wouldn't have minded a cheap 3 piece set, or a good price on the just large 28 inch. Don't really need another carry on or mid size suitcase
Can I just say I find it better and cheaper to just get the cheapest ones you can find and if something happens go buy a new one. The warranty on all of these overpriced ones are a joke.
E.g Lock on my suitcase was damaged. I took it back to David Jones and they sent it to an authorised repairer that said the cause is due to "Airport damage" which is not covered. So I got in touch with the airline and they told me I had to report the issue on the day if not it's not covered and was told to try my insurance company. So I got in touch with insurance that told me a claim is $300 so not worth it.
Moral of the story. Get a cheap one and if it becomes faulty get another one
Whats a cheap one though?
Like ones you find at Big W :)
Fully agreed… i own a set 20/24/28 from kogan unknown brand for about $120 for all 3s.
The largest 28” got damaged from my last travel and the airline replaced it for more than I bought the lot since they couldn’t repair it.
Bargain indeed.
Besides, I can’t get around my head to spend expensive luggages just for the rampie to throw around like garbage.
I got mine at Costco in Jun 23 and the price was $289.99. Pretty good suitcases
2 piece set?
Yes, only 2 colours, black or lagoon blue. However, I reckon they stopped stocking these suitcases as I could not find them anymore at Costco Docklands or Epping since then.
Wish the 2 piece was 20 and 28 instead of 24
Same
I can't find any sellers of the Samsonite Omni besides Amazon.. not even on the Samsonite website. Is this an old model?
From looking (and buying) Samsonite recently, it looks like the best standard discount you'll get is 40% off RRP. Then stack gift cards, cashback, employee coupons, or Qantas points.
If you want quality go for either polypropylene (lighter) or polycarbonate (stronger but heavier). I wouldn't want a carry on over 2.5kg. Also check carry on size if you're flying budget - the Australian sizes differ from euro.
I ended up getting the upscape 55 and 75cm for a bit over $400
Oh forgot to mention that Peter's of Kensington eBay site with eBay plus membership might work out cheaper for certain items. I didn't go through this route as there wasn't a colour matched set for what I was after.
Any other deals? Need 2 large ones..
Lagoon Blue available for backorder 2 piece set - $286.42
This may be the one i just cancelled, because i just bought costco one instead 2 pieces $269 in store with one carry on and one 75 cm
Costco carry on weight is 2.8 kg
Yeah I might cancel it. The 3.4 kg for the carry on is just too heavy, and I wish the 24" was the 28"
Is the costco one Samsonite? Did you buy from Parramatta or Casula?
$286.42 for blue colour , temp out of stock though
