Shipped on 12/30/06

God...I had to wait a friggin' month for this!



I hope they gave you a coupon or a gift card for your long wait.
I hate ordering something and wait a month to get it.

I *hope*...

But I don't think Best Buy is *that* nice...

I was actually at Best Buy yesterday to pick up Season 5 of 24 and there was this guy ahead of me that called ahead of time to see if they had a digital camera in stock and he was told that they had plenty. When he came in and they sold the last one a few minutes before he arrived, he complained and the store manager issued him a $25 gift card. I guess they CAN be nice but YMMV
 
After threatening to cancel my order bestbuy announced it shipped yesterday.

Cool, I had forgoten I ordered this beast. Should be a nice upgrade to the little mATX case I'm currently housing my server in after shutting down the way too loud poweredge 600SC....

Hah, I don't think "threatened" is the right word. 😛

They just said that if it doesn't get out of back-order, then they will have to cancel it.
 
Don't know how this hasn't been mentioned yet... But the case is now up for $79.99, with 10% off if you add an accessory (fan, etc) and 15% off everything if you order 3 accessories/components. That could bring the case down near $68 with a couple fans.

Dynex - Silver Thermal Compound DX-STC 100 $8.47
Falcon Safety Products - Dust-Off Smart Pack Cleaning Cloths DCSP $6.79
Antec - Aluminum Advanced Super Mid-Tower Case - Stainless Steel P180 $67.99

Product Total: $83.25
Shipping & Handling (Estimate): $5.50
Subtotal: $88.75

With Tax and Shipping to Chicago - $88 and change.

Still not a bad price to have someone bring it to your door 😉

$130 + @ $15 Shipping - Newegg
$130 + Free Shipping --- ZimZoomFly

Now people don't need to choose the 900 over the P180 based on Price alone.
Antec 900 $80 AR + Shipping

- Yes it's got a separate thread, but for convenience and relevance I posted it here too.
 
Just got mine today via UPS. Bummed to see that it's the revision 1.0 case and not 1.1 (1.1 fixes door warping issues, adds PCI cover vents, internal fan changes, etc.).

Can the 1.0's be RMA'ed to Antec for the 1.1's?

Wow ... good to know.

Maybe it's a 1.0 with a 1.1. non warping door?

Which doors are you talking about? The side panels? Because Im having issues with my side panels being warped. Picked mine up from Frys though. Really annoying.
 
Man, has anyone tried contacting Antec for an RMA? I actually thought the side panel warping was from something I had done. Try giving them a call tomorrow.
 
I haven't tried calling them for an RMA. I want the v1.1 for more than just the side panels. I want the new bottom 120mm fan and the clips for the internal middle 120mm fan as well as the new PSU padding.
 
Well, none of the Best Buys near me carry it anymore, so I found a 1.1 at CompUSA and I bought it. I'm going to return the 1.0 to CompUSA with the receipt I got for the 1.1 (since they are the same SKU) and tell them it's defective. That way Antec will get their defective case back and CUSA doesn't lose any money.
 
They sold out pretty fast last time they were back in stock, so congrats to everyone who got in. Keep checking. They might have more in a few weeks. Mine is still shipping, but that sucks about it being the 1.0. For all the people trying to RMA for a 1.1 let us know how it goes.
 
Back in stock again! as of 1:34 EST. The nice thing also about getting this deal from Best Buy is I can return to local store if any panels are warped. Also have many local compusa so I might consider checking for 1.1 rev. there and swapping with this best buy one..

anyone comment if the differences between 1.0 and 1.1 are worth it? assuming you do not have a warped panel.
