REQUEST - Anyone flying from SYD Int'l with time to visit the Tumi store?

[simongr]

Hi all

I was wondering anyone passing through SYD INt'l in the next couple of weeks would have time to visit the Tumi store for me.

I am just trying to check pricing and availability of a "Tumi T-Tech Empire - Leigh Top Zip Cross Body"

I am looking for a suitable carrier for the iPad that doesn't look like a handbag and is not so large that I am carrying extra bulk.

Any help would be appreciated.

Alternatively if anyone is in the US with chance to find a Tumi store, check the local price and email I would be more than happy to provide a bank transfer for the cost of purchase, shipping within Oz and a generous tip

Cheers

I'm sure someone will go through sooner but I have Mum and Dad flying out of Sydney in about a week to the USA.

I suppose you could call them?

I will be there Tueday, see what i can do for you Simon.

Am a fan of Tumi myself, the toughest stylish gear on the market me thinks.

cheers

I am happy with the IPAD cover from the Apple shop.It is a great fit and works good when you drop the device on the floor.
I use Tumi electrical plugs as they are the best and easiest to use.
Tumi luggage is much easier and much lower cost in Los Angeles at stores like Macys.

I totally agree and I am kicking myself at not getting one in the US a few weeks ago

@Sprucegoose - no number listed on the Tumi website but I will check the whitepages

EDIT

And nothing in the whitepages in terms of a number for them...

Thanks again - I thought there was a dedicated Tumi store - it seems not based on this... Strange that the Tumi site lists it as a Tumi store.

And there was me thinking this was a simple request...

 

[Sprucegoose]

I have seen a TUMI in the new JNB (J'burg) terminal part.

I will check Syd out on Tuesday for you

 

[simongr]

Much appreciated - the iPad is starting to swing my hand luggage questions again - this will almost work as a "personal item" - i.e. a purse...

Simon,
Karens is correct. (9667.3721)

I just dropped by, they have a limited range, not exactly what you wanted, they have a few versions of the T-Tech Empire but not the Leigh Top Zip Cross exactly. Looks IPAD size though. The lady suggested buying online or in the states.

I hope that is of some assistance

Theone sones that were there were between $150--200

 

[MissBurrill]

Karens is correct.

Woo hoo!!!

The lady suggested buying online or in the states.

Uh, dont know the store owner would be overly happy with her suggesting you to do so..... :shock:

 

[simongr]

Thanks Spruce. I just checked the store in the city and they are $130. It is fractionally too short but with time it will probably give a little.

Hmm - good to know on some levels that I can't get one at the Airport so I will have to think about it.

Thanks again.
