Where to buy the Coolermaster ATC-201?

I would like to be able to choose my own fans for the case (all 4 fans) so are there any places that only sell the Coolermaster ATC-201 aluminum case without the fans? It should be cheaper that way right? Sub-$200?
 
Here, though it's $210 (cheapest I could find). That case seems like a rip-off...exact same features as the Skyhawk...but $90 more. Even more expensive than the Lian Li PC-60!
 
someone should put down the pipe for a moment. It's like comparing a Lexus to a Dawoo
Lexus, great feature w/ top quality, pay premium for one.
Dawoo, packed w/ feature w/ crap quality, selling at dirt cheap price.

That's a horrible comparison. Granted, Coolermasters are a bit better than Skyhawks, but no better than models from Lian Li. Anyhow Lexus sucks, because only one of their models can be had with a manual transmission.
 
Well, the Coolermaster does have a somewhat better cooling, not to mention more room for stuff, so I'm willing to fork over an extra $50-$70 for it.

I'd say that is has no more room than the Lian Li PC-60, nor better cooling (unless installing a radiator). Does the 201 have a removable motherboard (and expansion slot) tray?

It's hard to imagine that the film thin face of Lian Li is comparable to Cooler Master's machined AL plate panel.
Lian Li is a good case, but Cooler Master has a more refine touch.

BTW, if you want stick shift w/ lexus, you might as well buy a BMW. Lexus is mostly for comfort w/ occassional driving pleasure.

I own a BMW. I looked at some average temps, and while the Coolermaster on average was about 0.4 degrees Centigrade cooler than the PC-60, the Skyhawk was about 0.6 degrees Centigrade cooler than the ATC 201...
