I hope you are right. However, I did pay with PayPal so in the event of non-delivery I should be refunded. How was their communication with you? Did they keep you informed about delivery? It is just frustrating to send them messages and get no reply.

It’s a few years since I bought mine but from memory I don’t think there were any comms from the company. The cases just arrived !

Expect two boxes for the three units.

How long since you placed the order?

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

I suppose there is a potential language barrier?

Received a reply this afternoon to my query. It appears the luggage was out of stock and has been re-ordered. According to the message they are expecting any time. So it appears it is just a question of waiting. I imagine Chris you got the same sort of message.

I bet you're relieved about that?

It would have be better if there had been an automated "currently out of stock" message reply!

I've not received anything yet but I would assume I am in the same boat - thanks for the info :)

Fingers crossed. We aren’t waiting too long. We were planning a few days in the Cotswolds while the sun shines and could do with the new luggage.

Luggage arrived this afternoon. Delighted with it. Fits perfectly. Although I’m not quite sure where the small case fits. It looks as though it goes on the floor of the boot under the two larger cases bit it is a bit of a tight fit. What do you think? It could also fit just behind the seats.

Ronk,where do you put the small case? It looks as though it fits on the boot floor under the two larger cases. But it is a tight fit.

Yes - The thin case fits in the small indentation at the rear of the bootspace with the two cases on the top.
It’s ideal for magazines/ travel plugs/ leads etc
They’ve utilised all the available space nicely but there is still the odd void to stow a couple of bottles of wine and a document case between the cases!

Thanks Ronk. We will have to be careful not to overfill the two large cases so that the tops bulge. Otherwise the cover will not clip down. :thumbsup:
