Comet ATX Case w/300w PSU back -- $33 shipped...

[thinlizzie]

I picked one of these up 2 weeks ago when it was $30 and it came with a 350w PSU! Very nice case for the money especially if you build rigs for others.

Tons of expansion possibilities (4 x 5.25" bays, 6 x3.5" bays of which 2 are front accessible).

Not bad looking either. Careful, not all the edges and corners are rounded so there is the possible hack to your hand waiting.

I think the price comes down to $30 if you do away with the $3 fan they try to force on you. Even without paying for their fan it comes with an exhaust fan in the side of the case.

Ordered this case with 350 watt ps 18 days ago, they charged my credit card the next day. I have called and called and left emails - They told me they can't check on the status of my order, they don't have the records their. Be good to yourself, stay away from this company at all costs!!! NO CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!

Same here. Bought 3 weeks ago, charged immediately. Requested tracking number after a week, called after a week and a half. The 800 number is for sales only, LD call to get "customer service" on the phone. They guy I talked to was very rude and would not tell me when my case shipped. Only that it had shipped. He said someone would call me and let me know why they didn't respond to my tracking request. I have called several times a day since then, and they no longer answer their support phones. After 3 weeks I disputed with my CC company and will be notifying the Attourney General and/or BBB. Do yourself a favor and buy elsewhere.

Also, FW has a thread going too, and at least one person got a 300W power supply. They listed a similar case with a 300W for $50 and said it was "of equal or greater value" so they could substitute it.

Exact same problem here. Still waiting a little longer before I dispute.

I figured if they shipped it already, then I'll keep it. If not, their company will regret trying to scam me out of my money.

power supply finally died on me after 5 months of usage. Fan was making clicking noises for a month before that. Very cheaply made powersupply, very light.

Terrible.....

 

[spanky]

these cases are pretty decent. but i would not really push the psu tho.

 

[Techie333]

well from what i hear........this doesnt sound like too good of a deal? is it?.........did anybody else's power supply die out?

 

[Mallow]

I ordered this case last month for $30... I've ordered this case 10+ times... always a good deal!

 

[jskap]

Thanks, just ordered one for myself

I had the same CS experience. The tracking Number took a week, and i got the number the day it arrived.

So the CS sucks, but the case is pretty decent for the money. It is $33 w/o the extra fan, so forget that theory. Oddly, when it was $30 last month you could add on a front USB w/ Headphone jack for $5. Now that option is gone, but there is a "USB Hub" option for $15???

Mine was supposed to have the 350Watt too, but I actually got the 300W, I didn't complain as I don't care, it runs the barebones system fine.

Still think its a good deal, even tho the PSU is a cheapy.

I ordered one of these cases back in July of 02, and it is still going strong. I have been running this thing on my server with extra "y" adapters for power plugs to utilize all of my ide channels, including the onboard promise controller. Cheap case but does it's job. I ordered 2 more this weekend.

If you read there policies on the site they almost sound like you are lucky if they want to do business with you, but the cases are cheap and no shipping. I wont complain until they try and pull one on me, then well talk.

Do you guys recommend using this case for an athlon XP 2000+ system??? w/ radeon 9500 possibly....or 8500....

 

[JeffMD]

I ordered this case a long time ago when it was on a bargain sale with a powermax psu( I think that was it). I had planned to use a safer more reliable PSU in it but untill then I installed everything into it with the default psu and found it was loud as all hell. other wise the case is good.

Get a real PSU and toss the one they give you and you'll be fine.

 

[Murdahra]

Its a good looking case and personally I have had this for over a year. After a couple months the button starts getting jammed and theres really not much you can do about it. I've takened apart the front panel several times and noticed that the design of the button does not keep it from rotating side to side and the button itself keeps getting caught around the corners of the rim. Purchased this from a friend who manages a computer store and they carried tons of these cases and all of them were like that. Great deal on the case though.

CASELCT400 LCT Mid ATX 400Watt purchased 12/28/2002. Recieved it in about a week with current tracking on site. Finally got it setup with an ECS K7S5A AND 1800+. Ran for about a month and then POW. Darkness, no fan, no beeps, no post nothing! Contacted the RMA dept. through links on thier site last Friday. Just recieved some kind of reply today, but still no resolution and RMA num. I was contemplating getting another one while this gets straightened out. Well now I am not sure.

Built 3 Athlon XP rigs with the $30 LCT case for cheap college friends and they are working great. Starting another this week.
