I'm looking to buy a new case for my sig rig, i am looking to mod it myself and therefore want a case that is as cheap as possible, i dont care what it looks like as i will be completely stripping it.
The only problem is the size, i would prefer to have a full tower, but all of the ones i have seen are actually good, and expensive. It needs to be cheap as i dont really feel comfortable chopping up an expensive case as i've never done it before. And it has to be from a website that posts to the UK. +Rep for anyone that can show me a case that fits the bill.

The only Full ATX I can find that is a reasonable price is this:
__________________hec from Newegg for $54 + $19 shipping = $73. It seems to be very suitable for modding as well, with even features externally, and removable drive bays on the inside.

How about the COOLER MASTER Centurion 534

And it has to be from a website that posts to the UK. Reading the entire post would help? If you want just any cheap case, check out a local store, it's much less trouble than buying online, and usually no having to pay for the shipping helps with the price.

There are a lot of mod-able CoolerMaster cases that can be found cheaply.

It's no big deal, its just that it's no use pointing to it if the guy can't get one where he lives. There's also a certain irony to a Canadian posting a Newegg link wouldn't you say? :P

Well it was just to show a case that he can get there. Newegg has the nicest layout and good photos so I use it for examples.

Thankyou all for the replies, even if the website doesnt post to the UK i'm still greatful for your help.
I am rather forced to buy online as there isnt a single computer shop anywhere near me that is worth looking at. Just wondering, how hard would it be to fit the stuff in my sig rig (And i will be adding either water cooling or a very large hsf at a later date) into a standard sized case? would it be too cramped? Thanks again.
