I've never had any problems with bags being tampered with at airports, although it can and does happen, I think it's unlikely ... I've never had a problem at any hotels I've stayed at either.
Sensible and reassuring Englishman, and I'm glad you've made your ebay purchase ! Do you - and other members - have advice about whether or not to lock your main baggage ? I can understand it might be risky to leave it unlocked but otherwise secure, but if it's locked it could attract unwanted attention, or you could forget the combination / lose the key.
