My wife's base broke on the Copenhagen trip and I didn't notice the crack until we were jamming those massive boxes sideways into the boot of a taxi on our next trip to the airport.
In case you still have your cracked box, maybe I should mention that I had some success in fixing plastic containers by using thin sheet metal and rivets. It has not been pretty, you need to be careful not to extend the damage, but they operate in practice as if nothing ever happened, including one suitcase.
