Which would you guys recommend.

I know p182se is alot larger and heavier. the look, i cant decide which one i like better. i know the msrp of the p182se was higher. any thoughts suggestions or personal recommendations from using either or both?
 
The 300 is much more "open" case. Lots of fans, and you can hear the noise pretty easily. If you are overclocking, this is a good thing. If you want silence, not so good. And you can get it new for about $50 anyway.

The P182 is quieter. There are several compartments which help isolate sound and heat. Great for silence/quiet, not so good for overclocking.

Both are very nice cases, but you can get the 300 for $50 new so it's not really a deal. The P182 is (I think) about $100 normally.

Appearance is totally a personal choice...
 
If you're going used, get the P182SE. It was a lot more expensive new, so $50 would be a better deal used. You can get an brand new Antec 300 for not much more than $50 (think mine was $59 new). If you're going to spend that much for one of those you might as well get a new one.
