whereas the newer 4 wheel versions seem to handle better.
Haven't really seen them, but I always wonder if those 4 wheels, exposed, would be more prone to damage?
I can confirm the Luggage Repair shop on Soi 55 is open. I was quoted "a week" to fix a stuck wheel on a carry-on. However, by the time I actually got there, I didn't have a week, and even if I did, I was worried they were talking "Thai time". But a possibility - no idea about the quality, but would assume labor should be pretty cheap.

As I was the OP I'll give you an update about my suitcase enquiry.
I decided to give the Samsonite a miss, in the UK the models I was interested in were about £165.
After doing some surfing I saw that Carlton suitcases had a good recommendation, so I have bought the Carlton Multidrive spinner.
The wheels are semi recessed, it has a TSA lock for the USA, 3 clamps including a 3 digit number one, several interior sections and a fully receeding two support handle.
I bought it off e-bay and I am very happy with the purchase, the main thing is that I am still happy after the baggage handlers at LHR and BKK have done with it.

I bought a Samsonite duffel travelling bag about 5-6 years ago from a bag shop on Sukhumvit Road, between Soi 5 and Soi 7. I can't say if it was original or a fantastically good-as-original fake Samsonite. The finish was excellent inside and outisde, with thick lining, tough handles, stitching and thick nylon zippers. It has no wheels though but is a spacious flexible bag that has served me well all these years. I paid 650 baht for it !
Following on this successful purchase, around two years back I purchased another Samsonite cabin strolly from MBK for 1500 baht. Same quality -- and performance -- as the earlier one. Now and then I amuse myself wondering if these are originals or fantastic fakes.
