well received my xl today, all packaging was standard, not best but good. but when i took the case out to my surprise all of the plastic clips that keep the front panel in place had snapped off!! no worry's though i went up b&q and bought some superglue for plastics and its fine now but the point is is that its not nice opening your new case to find the front panel hanging off

i know right. it was ok... the box was in a box but instead of big meaty polystyrene blocks protecting the case itself it was cardboard with a bit of poxy poly on it....

the quality isn't that bad, fair enough there is a fair few bits of plastic that can easily snap off but i like the case, just a few setbacks

i kept the case because i didn't see the point in sending it back, and the fact i couldn't be bothered but mainly because a few bits of glue here and there and it was fine, no visual effects on the case and the plastic is just as strong with the glue i used as it would be new. so all in all there wasn't any point when i could just save time and it looks the same, plus there isn't any massive glue sploges anywhere because im careful like that lol.
