I go for workability and low noise level in a case. As jdeb noted a second hand case with 80mm fans can sound like a 747 taking off; you want 120mm fans if in you're into quiet. The heavier, better quality cases tend to be more quiet. The mass of the things tend to deaden the noise and you don't have the rattling problems you can get with the cheap cases. I'm also not into bloodsports when building so I go for cases that are easy to work in.
