The all knowing SNA is not just about hi-fi and opinions range from coffee beans to reverse cycle a/c to dishwashers.

Quite tempted to invest in Samsonite Cosmolite:

It looks ugly but very light.
Where is the cheapest to buy one? (will have to do some work on this but recommendations most welcome)

I usually get mine from Peters of Kesington. I get the Ultralite ones from Samsonite. No issues with it so far. Cosmolite are a bit out there for my tastes.

Just wander around your local area on hard luggage day, you'll pick something up. Usually for a good price too.

+1. Peters of Kensington seem to have the best prices for Samsonite.

I better be quick - our local council is moving to 'call for pickup' instead of a twice yearly collection... :P

Thanks for all the replies.
There appears to be two main sites that stock the cosmolite one of them being Peters and both of them don't publish the price and have to call.
Will try that.
