can't see spending more than $300 for a bag. With that being said I reverted to TJ Maxx and started buying the $50 dollar name brands. The latest bag has lasted me three years with no problems so why spend the extra money? It breaks or I see something as nice I just buy a new one without worry of a warranty or waiting on the phone for customer service. Sorry, LW just lost a lot of quality in my opinion and that foam handle is ridiculous for the price they charge.
