Default Luggage works (Purdy Neat) HANDLE repair help

Mine is almost 4 years old. Handle on one side won't stay up. Have attempted to adjust the screw on the inside of spring pin (photo) but no difference. The pin at the 3 o'clock position (photo) doesn't stick out far enough and that side drops even when its "locked" in.
Any advice?

If I remember correctly the pin is worn on the side that should latch. I think I was able to flip the pin over or swap sides (been a few years) and got some more mileage out of it.
Or you can call them up and order parts.

Why don’t you just buy a new handle? They sell the whole assembly you can just replace.

The handle assembly isn't the problem, it is the locking pin. I'm not sure they sell those.

I had this problem before and they sent me or I ordered the locking piece was pretty easy to replace.

Just buy a travel pro and pull a bag that’s half the weight and doesn’t scratch and dent everything it touches. This isn’t the regionals anymore.
