Departures - Certainly the best luggage I've ever invested in! Thanks, Noble!

Exceptional experience. Exceptional service. Great selection…read more These guys have all your main luggage options- high end to entry level. We bought three suitcases (Briggs & Riley) and we are not disappointed. In fact, we went back to ask some advice on a warranty issue (from airline-inflicted damage), only to be so pleased, we bought another suitcase. They deliver on their promises. They work hard to ensure a good experience. I am sending my friends and family to Departures in Valley Fair.

Went in this evening to pick up 3 small items I need for a…read moretrip next week. Presented them to the sales associate and was told that the first two had been priced too low. I said, "well... the law says you have to honor your price." Fine. It wasn't a big difference. Then she told me that the third item was also priced incorrectly. I repeated, nicely, "But the law says...." She told me, "I don't know if I can do that." Started arguing with me -- told me the manufacturer doesn't discount their stuff, "it's a family business!" etc. -- and I just kept repeating, "But the law." I wasn't angry or even snippy. She got increasingly wound up. Then she called her manager. By the end of the call, she was apologizing to him or her, and sold the item at the priced marked. Then she accused me of making a habit of going to stores to cheat them! "I bet you've done this before! I bet you do this kind of thing on purpose! This is just a family business!" I just waited quietly for my receipt while she continued telling me, loud enough for everyone else to hear, what a horrible person I am, implying that I'm some kind of bad person and thief. Here's my message for the store: don't blame me for your mistakes. That law exists for a reason. It's to protect customers from a business deliberately writing "$9.99" on the price tag and then telling you, "oh, it's really $19.99!" I get that mistakes are made, but you are responsible for them, not me. My family also ran a business (for decades), and this particular pricing scam was common in the industry. If we made a pricing mistake, we ate it, without saying a word to the customer. There's a new 2024 California law that forces all businesses (especially hotels, car rentals) to display the full price, including junk fees. This law applies to ALL businesses and it's proof that the problem continues. I'll shop at Stern's from now on. The guy who runs that store really knows his stuff -- and he's also really nice.

I had a Great experience at this Samsonite store in Gilroy, CA…read more I called first & was surprised to find out they actually send out your luggage for repair if needed. I thought I had to go through Samsonite directly. I had a great conversation with Araceli she walked me through the whole process. I drove over later and gave her my luggage that needed a telescopic handle replacement! It was smooth, easy & it definitely cost less than buying a whole new large hard-sided suitcase. When the item is fixed they ship it directly to my door Awesome!! Araceli provided me with the BEST customer service. Highly recommend this store for all your travel needs.

Noelle's Yelp Notebook 2014…read more I LOVE Samsonite! For my wedding (nearly four years ago) I put Samsonite luggage on our registry at Macy's and our generous family purchased the largest suitcase with wheels, two carry on luggage with wheels as well. I've passed this Samsonite location many times while shopping at the Gilroy outlets. I decided to come here this past weekend. Upon entering I was greeted by Chris. Chris was friendly and helpful from start to finish. He answered all my questions and concerns about different luggage pieces which made my shopping experience fast and efficient. The entire shop is well organized and clean. I was able to take a look at a few different pieces and decided on the Samsonite Outline Sphere 21 which is perfect for international travel carry on requirements. Great customer service and a wonderful selection is a winning combination. Looking forward to shopping here again in the near future!
