You do still pay the shipping though, but looks like a pretty nice case, all things considered. Maybe a little too "flashy" for some though.

Ordered this case for a friend. Honestly, it's pretty much what I expected. Not the sturdiest build I have seen but will get the job done and impresses Joe Sixpack decently well.

Whoops, I guess it is. According to the Newegg website it stated that this was a deal for this weekend only, so I only looked back to 4/30 to see if it had been posted already. Apparently their "This weekend deal" isn't just this weekend lol.

will get the job done and impresses Joe Sixpack decently well.

Exactly the reason I bought one. I have a Joe Sixpack type this will be going to, and glowing lights makes him think it is a cool computer. Go figure :P

I don't even bother with side windows anymore. I'm too busy looking at my monitor :p

ah, would be nice...but $90 rebate... 3 months of waiting?
I will pass this deal to my friends, who actually need a case tho :P.
Thanks!

That is one butt-ugly case! No wonder they are giving them away!

That being said, I'll probably need to have one...

Beyond hideous. You couldn't even pay me enough to open the box, let alone sell one of those things.

***Edit***

Man, the more I look at that thing, the more I'm fascinated by just how %$^#%@& ugly it is! It's like Barbie mated with snake boy and their progeny was dispensed from a 1972 Frigidaire, except in hot pink instead of avocado.

Haha... You can go to LAN parties and call yourself tHe vIp3r! People would think you're soo kewl! Could you imaging if you bought it and didn't get your rebate. Could you live with yourself knowing that you paid $90 for that thing! O' wait...with shipping it's $104.99! Hmmm...I could have had an Antec 900, Sonata, P180B, maybe a Lian Lee...but I went with The Viper!

I'm sorry...some people may like this style of case. It's just the opposite of what I like. (other than the price)

I almost fell out of my seat laughing when I read this! Thanks for making my day, Dawg! :p


It's nowhere near my personal taste in cases (I don't even go for side windows), but I won't knock it for those who like it, got in on the deal, and got their rebate. Thanks for the post, Aktunka. :)

Deal seems to be dead. :( Just as I needed to give one of my friends a recommendation for a cheap case.

That case is identical to some that were in a iBuyPower ad in a magazine. Unless it's a knock-off of a better version of this.

God help us all, it's now migrated to mwave in the form of a bundle. (http://www.mwave.com/mwave/skusearch.hmx?SCriteria=SA02020) They should rename this thing the "Brown Treesnake" (http://www.invasivespeciesinfo.gov/animals/bts.shtml)

It is the same case! Just click on the "Eagletech Viper II" Case on base components, and you will see it.
