Are these rackcases decent?

Sign in to disble this ad
I need a 3-space rack within the next couple of weeks and I'm looking at these on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...749185660&rd=1

It looks like a solid, well-built case but none of these have sold over the past couple of weeks. Is this not a good price, or are these SKB ripoffs of inferior quality? Thanks!

I was recently shopping for a rack and saw a lot of different brands. That looks like one of those MBL cases. If it is, the plastic looked like it would bust easier than a Gator or SKB. I ended up getting a 10ru Gator. Got it for $130 new with free shipping. Here, check out this 4ru Gator for $105:

Your going to spend anywhere from $90.99 to 96.99 on that one anyways so buy a name brand reputable case. JMO!

yeah, if your going to spend that much on something your skeptical about, just get one new. an SKB 4-space on MFriend.com is $74.99.

Yeah, but that's for one of those Roto or X racks. I'm looking for something that has the quality of the ATA racks. Thanks for the replies, though!
