I usually don't recommend getting really cheap case. You get what you pay for.
But looking at this and reading the description, it seems like a very good deal. I have to a closer looks and see it in person to see if it really is that great. |

Yeah, you usually get what you pay for. You should double check to make sure it includes fans. $20 might sound nice...until you find out it doesn't include fans. Once you tack on the cost of fans, it adds $15 onto the price (for two fans and shipping).

It looks pretty good for a $20 case. I don't think you'll be too disappointed if you got it.

Keep in mind that $20 of this price comes back as a rebate and Tiger Direct is notorious for problems with paying rebates. The rebate terms look legit to me but they sure stress cashing the rebate check within 90days or it becomes void. Freight to Michigan is $12.92 which is competitive with other sites. When you consider freight and a possible rebate hassle the real up front cost is $52.91. Still a decent looking case. I wonder if the steel is solid or flimsy.

It actually is very nice. I have recently used this one for a build for my parents. Got it pretty cheap from RadioShack after a Mail in rebate. Good overall construction and layout for the $$.
