Anyone got any ideas where I can buy a Black Knight case in the UK or somewhere that will ship it here at a reasonable price.

The best I've got so far is ewiz.com and they're asking $150 for Fedex economy shipping. Fedex priority shipping is over $200. There's no chance I'll be paying 4 times the cost of the case just to get it here.

The list of distributors on the Ahanix website isn't exactly promising when it comes to alternatives.

Does it have to be black?
These guys do ship internationally. Wouldn't know if they ship to the UK.

Have fun!

Colour doesn't really matter. The silver looks good too.

Not sure if that site will ship to the UK. The range of options on this page isn't inspiring. I'll send them an email though and see what they say. At least I'll get it in English! I'm afraid reading Dutch isn't a skill I've acquired yet.

That site did lead me to 3R Systems who make the case. They also list European resellers. None in the UK though

The most promising is listan.de. I'm certain they ship to the UK - managed to find "GrossBritannien" in the shipping options. Only EUR14.50 shipping too if I understand it right. Haven't got a clue what "bestellung abbrechen" or "bestellung fortfahren" mean If only we'd learnt German at school instead of French. Their tv is better too

I was potentially very interested in the Ahanix case, especially after all the positive comments on the board. But when I found out it wasn't available here I lost interest

I've since been looking at alternatives, most recently the one I posted about here: http://forums.silentpcreview.com/viewtopic.php?t=13111

This one is the only other case I can see that comes supplied with fans and fan-controllers out of the box so might be an alternative if the Ahanix proves too hard to source.

"bestellung abbrechen" = cancel your order
"bestellung fortfahren" = continue with the order

I happen to understand both German & English and a bit of French.
That's what happens when you live in a small country.

Anyway, EUR 14,50 sounds better than US$ 150

This site only ships to The Netherlands and to Belgium. Maybe if you give them a call they may reconsider...
