Oh come on man ...thats way over the top lol
And some companies release flight cases for PC Rigs which wont move.
The flight case is perfect for a Small ITX / Lan PC build.
Wont move? we have a customer with an 8Pack Supernova who takes it to i-Series three times a year..
We've been shipping 8Pack systems in flight cases since day 1.
The reason for the flight case is that a case this large and heavy is very difficult to manoeuvre through any courier network. A cardboard box wouldn't stand up to the punishment very well at all.

Not for £800 it's not. just my opinion.
I'd say the same if I haven't seen the case, I am fortunate to see the case with the OrionX built inside and appreciate how great the case is. But price is always down to the end user and what the customer wants to pay.

We need to arm the couriers with metal bars then, just so they can give it a right good going over instead of just kicking it around
Well I'm glad that Phanteks catered for this customer who takes his 8Pack Supernova out the house 3 times a year.
Now when looking at the majority, I highly doubt that more than 5% of the people who buy big cases from OcUK, move their cases on a regular enough to warrant the increased price from a "Free" Flight Case.
As you say this is because its difficult for couriers to ship due to punishment. Does this mean you get a refund or replacement if the Flight Case arrives with a scratch or dent on it as this is technically a product you're purchasing and not part of the shipping.

I knew it was going to be expensive but that price tag puts it into a whole new catagory. I was contemplating £500 max and I'd buy it, now though I think I'll stick to my current case or look importing a caselabs case instead.

Absolutely nothing moronic about buying what will be one of the best cases on the market. Rough date is around 18th/19th February. Welcome to the elite!
