Couple of things, a plastic bag in one compartment didn't have anything in it but had tape on it at the opening. One of the clips inside is 'ill' fitting into its receiver but that will be fixed. Figures I get one that I suspect could have been a second but its mine now!
It IS very well made, I especially like the little loops at each zipper, for those little padlocks (or wire ties) which only tell you if someone was in it nothing else. That nice touch shows the designer thought diligently.
Mrs says I will rathole the set and never use it... Maybe I could buy another set for use! Mrs DID NOT like that idea, nope not one bit...
GET EM WHILE THE GETTING IS GOOD!!!!
OK, I did it... (Oooops, I did it again... Now I got that dang song in my head). I ordered another set. It took the order so they must still have stock. You may ask why I ordered another set? I HAVE OCD (Obsessive Crossfire Disorder). Now you see, my Mrs is sound asleep dreaming of one of the birthday presents she will get (probably before the 22nd, her birthday), but since I haven't told her I was doing this we'll see if by chance, she's psychic. I hope my plan works, I ordered it for me but will give it to her for her birthday. Now really, will I get busted? HEL L YES! But as we've been married 38+ years, I am pretty dang sure she will return the favor sometime soon. I hope the second set is better than the set I first got including the handling of the package by UPS. Of course, in about three days, if you don't hear from me PLEASE call 911 and report me in dire straights as I misscalculated the effect of ordering another set of this ULTRA FINE SET OF XF LUGGAGE! As a footnote, I said a self-serving prayer of a non-injuring nature for when my Mrs finds out, does anyone think that will help? Naw, me either... Well I'll let you all know (if I'm able!).....
