I purchased two of the burgendy 24" in July 2011.  Not sure why, but Amazon had this burgendy piece priced at $142 while the other colors are $100 more.  No other site even came close to that price.  The luggage arrived in two days.  The color is a deep burgendy and the piece is well constructed.  The platinum 6 also comes with Travelpro LIFETIME guarantee (visit the travelpro welbsite for more information)- even guarantees if damage is due to airline mishandling.
