Antec 300 Price

[Deleted member 2277]

I am planning on buying an Antec 300 case today, but I've just noticed that OcUK's Price is £69 but everywhere else are selling these for £49. Has there been a typo on the Price? or does the OcUK one come with a PSU or something?

the antec 300 is in very short supply with low allocation to all of europe.
you may have noticed that our system range has switched all of our popular systems over to the antec 900 at no more cost.
the price on this case fluctuates a lot mainly because of demand with it being so popular.

our price is based on what suppliers offer us.

why not consider an antec 900 for yourself?

alternatively there are some great cases on the market at around the £50 mark

Silverstone PS02B
Silverstone SST-PS03B
Xigmatek Midgard
Coolermaster CM-690
Lancool Dragon-Lord PC-K58

I plan on using the case to build a nas system running unraid, I like the look of the 300 as i don't plan on fitting any optical drives.

You can build in any of RJKs recommendations without an optical drive.

 

[RickST]

He just means its pretty without drives.

Even though the price is silly i have bought 2 in the last couple days. My favourite mid-tower

Out of interest, why was the Antec 100 removed from OcUK?

Good question, even though I personally think the Silverstone 03B, which looks very similar, is the better of the two.

I would like to know this too It looked really great, maybe it would cannibalise 300 sales too much as it looks very similar?

 

[scrlk]

I guess OcUK is under an NDA from Antec and thus can't tell us.

Antec 600 disappeard as well just as i was gonna buy it

 

[Ace Modder]

The Antec 100 is not under NDA - it has been delayed by a few months. Not taking backorders yet due to the delays

Can you send a note along to Antec to get them to rotate the HDD bays?

I ended up buying a Fractal Design R3 for £79, seems to be a really nice case.
