Fixed !

Yay! I finally fixed the broken wheel after such a long time as at today.

21st June (Friday)
22 days after I returned. Actually quite long hor! I’m still in holiday mood. Kept forgetting about the luggage until I walk to the yard and see the luggage there. Then wanted to order, distracted again until the next time I’m reminded of it again when I see it. 

Decided to drag the luggage bag out to remove the wheels to find the suitable fit

Took pic of this to make a better comparison 

Noticed there’s a 1 and 3. Not sure what’s the difference so messaged seller on 21st night. They look the same to me but not sure if anyone can trust this cock-eye me or not. 
Placed order on 22nd after I read the message from seller in the morning 

$36.80 for 2 wheels. Last replacement of Che-che’s 4 wheels in the service centre last July cost $150?! And I only needed to change one but they convinced me to change all 4 so can balance. What shit lah! I kena conned lor! 

Reason why I didn’t want to send this year 

1) they will convince me to change all 4 for lil’ one’s luggage. Lil one luggage probably destroyed by us when we had to drag luggages up and down 2 flight of stairs in Boston 😂. 

2) expensive

3) parking is a problem not once but twice. One time for drop off; another time for pickup. 



Fixed on 26th June. I’m so proud of myself tho I was complaining and replying to myself the whole time I was trying to screw in and struggled with the luggage inner lining in my way. 

Lil’ one’s bag not so obvious coz it’s silver plated just like the original. 


Che-che’s one sticks out like a sore thumb. But who cares.. I hope I don’t have a falling wheel in the train station again. 
Heng ….didnt throw the old inner part away coz the seller only sold the wheels. I mean I didn’t know if it was meant to be a default extra piece that will come together or not. Imagine if I HAD thrown it away 😱


This is the part which I kept it aside. Imagine if the kee-siao suddenly feel like decluttering me threw it away. I needed to put this inside Che-che’s luggage and screw the wheels on.



(cynical remark) Thank you huh JetBlue for delaying my luggage and destroying my luggage wheel 


Now ready to use the luggage again for next trip
