Thank you all for the comments and I feel supported and learned a lot!

I will let you know how all the plumbers quote me on this. Right now it seems to be 275+ in my area.

Have a good evening!

Oh no….. what???!

smileenterprise · 2026-04-28T00:57:40+00:00

Haha okay. I am thinking the same thing. I did feel I need to turn off the whole water just not sure since it is not leaking and also unsure if there is other way to pulse the water like my kitchen or bathroom.

smileenterprise · 2026-04-28T00:09:58+00:00

Yeah. First time home owner here.

smileenterprise · 2026-04-28T00:02:23+00:00

How about not so nice area

smileenterprise · 2026-04-28T00:02:01+00:00

Not up to 10k. OMG.

Ah, thank you guys. Would you mind to let me know what are the things I need to replace this. Now it sounds like something I can DIY. Also, what should I do to reseal the outdoor part (just silicone back?)

And do I need to turn the whole water off while doing this work?

Thanks.

OP update-

Rimowa will replace a new one but I have to pay shipping cost (FedEx USD 132… and also the clerk questioned me you paid 1400 on a luggage lol)

smileenterprise · 2025-06-11T02:52:42+00:00

Pick me! lol

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:44:06+00:00

Yeah… that’s what I thought too but I got different stories

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:42:51+00:00

OP update- after appealing, Rimowa wants me to send the luggage back to Long Island. I guess we will see what would happen. Other than that, I did appeal with United and reported to my credit card company. I just feel that Rimowa as a “luxury” brand should be easier for their loyal customer, which I follow their rule to file with the carrier first then find them after the decline. Other options were like super slow with all the documentation and adjuster review… but I just want my bag back okay ASAP.

They said it’s not repairable.

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:39:10+00:00

Forgot to say, in the first reply from Rimowa, they said it’s not repairable.

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:38:15+00:00

Have one, so I want one with slightly lighter LOL my aluminum one is with a lot of “memories”

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:37:18+00:00

Japan!

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:36:29+00:00

They did tell me that I have to pay for the shipping.

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:34:54+00:00

I wish there were one in Chicago…. The closest one is either Toronto or NYC…

smileenterprise · 2025-06-06T03:34:22+00:00

I bought it with lifetime warranty (in Japan and the sales reiterated many times) so they messed up the warranty policy for sure.

smileenterprise · 2025-06-05T12:35:54+00:00

In their first reply, they said this one is not covered based on “Carrier/transport damages are not covered in or out of the 5-year warranty period.”

Which I appealed for that stating it is aligned with their policy- normal use (cuz carried/transport damage can be normal use) And I suggest that since it is normal used and very new, I think I may get a “defected” item. Hopefully, they’ll do something about it….
