Ripped from Ben's, plenty in stock but quit dawdling already! These are great junker cases to practice your modding non-skills, placate grandpa, or build that phreakin budget-htpc already :p

Don't you hate deals that are kinda hard to say no to? :( :)
 
ill get one of those for my P2 system.

is it going to melt though...
 
Thanks. I needed a cheap case. :)

Was going for a blower too, but the shipping is a lot. About $5-6. :eek:
 
:p Thanks

had my fill of cheap cases, MB mounting holes not lining up etc etc...

The PSU looks like a nice cheap unit though :)
 
wowie zowie thanks.

I've got an old P3 system I've been stalling on getting unloaded. 1 problem is the POS case with some holes where I "modded" in a fan. But I didn't have a dremel so I used a drill/some pliers. So its pretty nasty lookin.

With one of these I should be able to sell it to some chump, err customer, for some decent $$
 
$12.91 for a black case shipped. not too shabby considering you know the company has to have at least $10 invested in shipping charges alone.
 
Hmmm... sehr, sehr versuchend... *Pops open wallet*

Anyone have any experience with EBuyer cases?

I've ordered quite a few of their cases and................................. well, what can I say? they're cheaply built but they do the job so I guess thats what really matters.

these cases are perfect for the cheap-a** customer who doesnt want to spend a dollar more than he/she hs too. (and yes, I've ran into lots and lots of people like that in my time.)
 
I needed a case, so I bought one. $12 and some change shipped. Not bad for a cheap case.
 
Wow, that would be perfect for the system I am building next month, I was looking for a cheap case to stick it into until I could buy a nice case. :D
 
I have gotten six cases from them over the years, just fine for a distributed computing crunching box.
 
Nice find, those cases look pretty decent for a wife/girlfriend/mom case or a practice mod. I'm also tempted by those PCI fans (don't need them at the moment but they're good to have around). Shipping = $1.50!
 
Tip: NEVER EVER buy a cheap power supply. I've had too many crap out on me.
 
in for 2, ya can't beat this price shipped.... especially if you build PCs for the occasional customer or you just need another box for older hardware that's been sitting around
 
Cool,

I am in for one of those black babies. I happen to have a spare PS laying around and need a case for an old P3 processor and MB I have. Doesn't look to shaby either. Thanks for the find.
 
1 case $5.75
Plus $35.15 S/H
$40.90 Total
I don't think so

Only if you have to have overnight shipping. Regular ground service is $7 which is slightly more than the case but alot cheaper than most sites ship cases for. The total cost for me came to $13.99 because they also charged tax but it was still worth it. lol ;)
 
wow, those are cheap

I'm in for the black one, I'll see if this old P2 system still works
 
heck, at just a little under $13 (shipped), you really dont have that much to lose. :p
 
Cool deal. I picked up one of the silver ones. I been looking for a cheap case to use as a temporary while I put the finish on my main case. It should make a good spare. I also picked up one of the multimedia keyboards because a spare keyboard is always a good thing to have laying around.
 
I bought two of these cases back when they were 13.99 with free shipping. They are cheap cases but they get the job done.
 
ordered a black one.. will be good home for my p4 spareparts folding rig..
 
These are surprisingly good cases for what you pay. I have the silver one. The screws all line up, and I had no installation problems. There were a few sharp edges, and of course, no fans included, but mine fit my Micro-ATX board, as well as an ATX board. With the addition of some aftermarket thumb-screws on the back, this has become a good case for my fileserver. The metal is pretty thin, though, so don't bang it around or it will warp.

(2x80 fan brackets in the back, 4x80 fan brackets in front)
