If customs agents ruin your luggage, is there anything you can do about it?

Comments (3)

I loaned a vintage suitcase to my husband to transport a pricey video camera from America to Europe. It is the old fashioned “hard shell” type, with a satin liner on the inside.
Apparently, when customs agents were searching it, they sliced open the satin liner on the insides of the suitcase.
I am assuming that there’s nothing to do about it now, but I would like to know, as this was a beautiful piece of luggage in perfect condition!

Should I lock a hard case vintage suitcase or tie it ?

Comments (2)

I have a vintage suitcase (70’s, perfect condition) that I plan on using on traveling this month from LAX – to WA. The locks (with keys) work perfectly, however I cannot get a TSA approved lock because there’s nowhere to put it. I was considering some sort of belt or strap around the shell but I’m still wary of just sending it out unlocked. Should I go this route? Please help!

I wouldn’t want to imagine what would happen to my suitcase if they couldn’t pry it open.
