Buying luggage.

I’ve been looking at buying a suitcase for my trip home. The thing with shopping for luggage is that the price range/quality is so great. I mean, you can buy a $10 suitcase, or a $300. That’s a pretty big spread. So how’s a girl to know how much she should spend? In the past, I’ve usually just bought cheap luggage because I figure I use it a couple of times a year so it doesn’t need to be super sturdy. But now I’m finding that the cheap luggage’s cheapness is showing through the wear. So I’ve been thinking of spending a little more money, and like anything I spend money on, I gotta do some research. I found this helpful article, What sort of bag should you buy?, about carry on luggage because I’m thinking of getting a carry on suitcase. I think it would suit my needs well, I’ve got to take a laptop and DSLR home and obviously that can’t go in a checked suitcase and if I have them in their own respective bags, that eats up all my carry on baggage allowance right there. Plus I’m thinking I’ll spend a week or so in December going around Austria, and maybe Germany, and maybe something small with wheels would be nice.

I went and looked at some luggage this afternoon at Loft. I still find it hard to tell the difference between a $100 suitcase and a $200 one. Will have to keep looking. Google search pointed me to an apparent discount store nearby in Sannomiya that I was not aware of, I’m going to have to check out this DonkiKingdom place.
