They still didn't ship out my order from 12/24 (only created label) so don't buy expecting it to arrive within a week (not 2-5 business days)

I saw a review that said that you should think of it primarily as a roller which you can turn into a backpack when you need in certain areas vs a backpack you occasionally roll, if that makes sense.

Purchased yesterday and they say they shipped it. But just a label. I am leaving the 29th and have to have this bag for my trip. Reading a lot of other comments and it sounds like ebags.com is really bad at shipping things in a timely manner.
Purchased mine on ebay from samsonite, Jan. 2nd showed shipped like a day later but wasn't handed to ups until today. Now showing Jan. 11 delivery, fingers crossed

In the same boat. Placed my order on (12/24), and as of writing (1/5) still no movement other than having a shipping label. I tried emailing customer service on (1/2) to see if I could get some kind of status update. No luck on getting a reply.

Why do companies do this silliness of just creating a shipping label but never actually ship the thing?

Do they honestly think they are fooling anyone?

I love the deal. But it is not a deal unless you actually get the thing for when you need the thing.

I am taking a trip on the 29th and you would think in 2024 that something could be shipped within 25 days. But I have my doubts.

It took them five days to actually ship my bag. Kind of ridiculous in 2024. Now another five until it will be here.

Ordered my bag on 12/23 with a previous deal. Still no shipment on 1/8 and after numerous emails to customer service, I tried the chat. They blamed the delay on UPS being slow and they said it was picked up but was never scanned by UPS. Said I would have to wait 10 Business Days to file a claim for them to do anything.

Oddly enough after 24 hours, I got a shipment update (origin scan) this afternoon for delivery on 1/12 (original delivery was 1/3).

Would not recommend this company solely based off their customer service.

Their site says it arriving today, but when I grab the tracking number and go to UPS directly, it's just at label created. Bummer. Fingers crossed it comes by our trip later this month.

No response to email, so I tried calling just now during business hours. "Our staff is currently attending a training session and will be back as soon as possible….click"

What company sends an entire department to train at the same time during business hours? What a shit-show, kind of regret ordering these bags at all.

I had the same arriving today message and it never came. Now the delivery date on the website is blank.

None of my orders have progressed past the label created stage. Not even my order from 1/4. 11 days of not shipping.

They haven't shipped my bag yet. Anyone else in the same situation?
