    You want the prices here in South Africa? The UK? HK? NZ? LA?

    They tend to vary is why I'm asking.

    They vary a lot just in 3 or 4 different suburbs of Denver. Smaller operations are often willing to take on a project just to keep the doors open and stay employed one more day. Large powdercoating operations with big commercial accounts sometimes just laugh at 'piece work'

    Agree with john.

    Look around the Yellow Pages for small local places.

    I got a MountainMods U2 UFO ( not exactly a small case :D ), inside and outside + accessories, done for £50 by a small company a couple of miles away.

    PC shops that advertise powder coating would of wanted double, atleast, for the same job. Include the cost of sending the case to them and the £50 could have been closer to £150.

    Shop around :)
