    I think there's a typing mistake in the title : "Corsiar" ... :)

    Damnit - I made doubly-sure to spellcheck the body, and completely missed the transposition in the title. It's been a long week... Fixed, ta!

    Wow. Forty quid isn't bad, all things considered.

    Well, this being about £50 explains why the 300r has gone up £10 in the last month or two.

    nice looking case at a great price! If it wasn't for me wanting to go mITX next build, this may have been the case!

    More like £50 once you factor in the price gouging, UK retail rip off merchants we have in this country.

    It's VAT that'll be the killer: including VAT, $59.99 is about £45 - which makes £49.99 a likely price point in the UK.

    If they can keep it below £50 it should still be a good buy, nice looking case imo

    Doesn't look too bad...although it has more than a passing resemblance to the Antec 300 I picked up on sale for $30 not so long ago. To be fair, the 300 doesn't have a painted interior. And, while I don't know Corsair's 2.5" mounting method, Antec's consists of 4 screw holes in the floor of the case :\ Even at that, though, it was a screaming deal on a well-ventilated case that came with a 120mm and a 140mm fan.
