    Hi
    A short time ago someone posted alink to a UK site for cheap cases with only 10 pounds shipping to Ireland, would anyone still have this link?
    I am looking for the cheapest place to buy this case: Lian Li PC-73SL
    For anyone who does not know this case i advice you to google for a review as this in my mind is the most perfect Lian Li case ever!!:cool:

    You would be better of buying from elara!! the exchange rate is terrible £10 for delivery?, with 17.5%VAT means your paying exactly the same price:(, when will the backward idiots join the Euro???.

    How do you get stuff for cheaper??? once you exchange there are no savings for a person using the Euro, the exchange rate being so high. If you live there well WHOP-DE-DO you get paid in £ meaning you still afto work the same amount as someone using € to get something, so?. The only thing you get is a greater selection, that has nothing to do with the € but with the fact that we live in EIRE, compare our prices and selection to .de; you'll see what I mean. The currency is meaningless it may as well be Monopoly money.

    Use discountcomputer-ni.com, they have cheap cases, also I saw somewhere with cases for 30 euro the other day in town. Can't remember where unfortunately.

    A 30€ case is not something I'd like to put a new PC in unless I'm not planning on ever working on it again and sending it to Mars, believe me I HAVE one of those kinda cases and I regreted getting it from day one the case is a very important component!.

    Don't think i'd want to sit near a case that only cost 30 yoyos, the psu must be fairly cheap. Could blow on ya! :p;) . You get what you pay for I suppose. Just bought one for 80 yoyo's (300w) , and that was pretty cheap. I could have got one cheaper online i suppse, but i'm a but impatient. :D

    When i started this thread it was not for finding 30 euro cases, the one i am after is around the 450-500 euro mark (Lian Li PC-73SL) and if i can i would prefer to get it as cheap as possible.
    My PSU alone cost more than most regular cases at 120 euro but it is worth every cent!!!
    So just a friendly advice, if u plan on spending more than 500 euro on your pc do yourself a favour and do not trust all your nice expensive hardware to a cheap no name 30 euro psu, like putting moped engine in a Porche :cool:
