I bought it along with the fans, clear IDE cables, window decal and a few other accessories for about $130 total. This was maybe... I wanna say back in January 2003, so almost a year ago now. I'm sure the prices have gone down some.

Yeah, putting this thing together was a pain in my geeky ass. Took about 6 hours of work to both unassemble my old computer and put together this case. Like Lasereth said, it's all just sheets of acrylic, with a bunch of screws to put this together. Adding and removing harddrives is an absolute bitch too unfortunately. The motherboard is attached to the side of the case, the side of the case that has to come OFF to put up the HD mounts to hold them in place. This means taking out all PCI/AGP cards along with unplugging a lot of the stuff from the back just to put a HD in. So a typical 5 minute operation has now turned into about 25-30 minutes. But! In the end , its allll worth it.
