Mecca at 19$ pretty good since anyone that REALLY trusts a PS they got in a 30 or less case is just foolin themselves...

anybody have any experience with this vender?

The "Danger" model doesn't look that bad--I prefer it over the Mecca one at least. Then again, I like '80s styled sharp edged cars so .

I was talking about the ones that are on sale, $90 for an aluminum chieftec with no PS isn't a hot deal.

Oh man, I bought the purple version of the "Tango" case from Fry's a couple of years ago. I used it in a PC for my mom. What a pain--the power button shattered, the motherboard tray is difficult to slide in and out. Run away!

 

[CtK]

not bad $15 for shippin
for the Mecca at least

Only $10.xx shipping for me to the land 'o cheese (Wisconsin). $13.xx for two! This is tempting. The Danger case has 2x front USB ports. Anyone seen it in person? Hard to tell how nice it is by the small photos.

That's dang cheap shipping for computer cases.
Personally I really liked the Ever Case I got from newegg. GREAT case for under $35 shipped ($48 shipped with a 300w PS, and $33 shipped without a PSU). Had front USB ports, almost no screws anywhere (including some cool lever things that slide closed to lock in DVD/CD drives WITHOUT DRIVE RAILS). And a side fan. Anyway, just my 2 cents, that ever case one one of the best small size cases. You can get much better full and larger mid towers of course, but unlike a lot of others that are larger, this has 4 hard drive bays.

The one I got was the $21 one (plus $12 shipping fedex).

There are/were a few long anandtech threads on this specific case and some others, including a black version of this one. Most people like it, the one or two minuses are that it doesn't have a motherboard tray (which I could care less about), and the reset switch is microscopic. HOWEVER, since the front plastic part of the case comes off and is not attached to any wires or buttons, it would be a cinch to use a small drill bit to make the hole for the reset button a bit larger without affecting the button in any way.
Lots of pictures from various angles on newegg if you want to take a look. I got one of these for the family computer upgrade, and I very nearly refused to let them have it I started loving it so much when I was putting it together. I'm gonna order myself another soon for my personal modded gaming rig. Gonna have some fun modding it.

shortened linke to newegg case

That sounds like a very nice case. Several years ago I built a system, for someone else, using a CasEdge (seems to be spelled CaseEdge too?) case and it was very nice. This case sounds similar in terms of ease of use. Thanks for pointing it out. Maybe this case plus the $18 PSU deal from DirecTron is the ultimate deal (Liteon 300W).

edit: Odd thing is this case and the color of the plastic internal bits is very similar to the CasEdge one. Maybe same manufacturers?

If you want any info on the case just lemme know. I could even snap some pics. I love the case.

 

[cmv]

Some more snapshots of the NewEgg case would be great. If you get a chance please take a few .

Just recieved my Mecca case today.

No power supply but I didn't really expect it to have one.

I have to say, it's prolly the best $19 dollar case I've bought... well, actually the first $19 dollar case I've ever bought, lol.

Am I missing something? I don't see any meca case
