Samsonite Forum Istanbul Store Ignored My Defective Biz2Go Backpack Complaint

Samsonite Forum Istanbul Store Ignored My Defective Biz2Go Backpack Complaint
November 3, 2025 10:47 AM34

I purchased a Samsonite Biz2Go-BP 17.3" EXP Overnight backpack from the Samsonite store in Forum Istanbul, paying $260. Shortly after the purchase, and after only a few trips and limited daily use, the upper part of the bag cracked, causing significant deformation.

Due to this issue, I visited the store twice to have the product sent for inspection. However, on both occasions, my request was rejected, and no solution was provided. I also was not informed whether the product was under warranty or the reason why it might be excluded from coverage. I still have the original purchase receipt as proof of payment.

I do not wish to receive the same model again, as I do not want to experience the same issue a second time. Therefore, I am requesting either an exchange for another product of equal value or a full refund for the defective item.

Hello. Although 14 days have passed, no one has contacted me yet. I am waiting for a response regarding my complaint. They follow up until the sale, but after the sale, they do not stand behind the product. I paid 11,000 TL. I definitely want an exchange or a refund for this product. I wish you a good day.

"I filed a complaint against the retailer and, consequently, against Samsonite, and I think I applied to the Consumer Court about a month ago. Today, the retailer Trunk&Co at Panora Mall called me and said exactly, "The headquarters accepted your return, but we have another color of the same model of your bag; we can give you that, but you must pay the price difference, or we can refund you the invoice amount (half of the current sale price)." Of course, they got the required response from me. I told them they need to inform me in writing and that I have also filed a complaint with the Consumer Court. My dear, how painful it is that companies like this can still operate this way in my country..."
