I recently purchased a case (from Nikao, Zeus model) from Newegg.com (great company!). The pictures of the case looked great on all the sites that sells them. However, when I received it, it didn't look as good and the quality is sub-par. I was disappointed. I decide I'll return it. Thanks to Newegg they waived the restocking fee this time; however, I still have to pay the S&H which is fair. So basically, I spent $30 to look at the case.

I am hesitate to buy any heavy over the net cause the return shipping cost, the trouble of returning it, and the worry if it will get there in original condition.

Intention: to get a case that looks cool and can last >5yrs.

Questions:

1) Does name brand PC case worth the extra $$$?
2) If yes, what brands are good?
3) Are these good brands?

Thanks again!
