Up to 50% off on Refurbished Cases!

http://store.nzxt.com/category_s/36.htm

All NZXT refurbished cases come with a 90 day warranty.

We even have a few White and Black Switch 810's for 129.99 with FREE SHIPPING.

These prices are absolutely nuts. I may have to buy a few just to have some extra cases on hand.

Hey Xnine, I just tried to buy the M59 for 19.99$ and it shows free shipping but still charges me over 24$ for shipping when I go to check out? Is there a special code?

I just compared it to newegg.com and NZXT is charging 61.56$ /w shipping for a refurbished case when I get can get the case on newegg BRAND NEW for 57.98$ not really a good deal is it? If it was 19.99$ free shipping like was posted that would be a great deal for a preowned case.

Was thinking about picking up another Source 210 for my crunching farm

Not a good deal after all when you can buy new for less.

Hmmmm.

A new Whisper is 129.99+9.99 shipping ($139.98, at newegg.com right now). A refurbished unit is 89.99+34.37 shipping ($124.36). You need to spend at least $200 for free shipping with these cases (it seems as though the rules are fast and loose, depending upon the case).

Is a decreased warranty of 90 days, but a corresponding decrease in price of less than $15, worth it.... Gotta say no.


Thank you for the information, but this "deal" on refurbished units isn't exactly a deal. I'll gladly pay an extra $15 for the full year warranty, and the getting a corresponding new piece of hardware. If the shipping drops down to a more reasonable price I'm on-board. As it stands, I'm going to pass.

Looking to get one of those Black Source 210 cases, but when I tried to check out, it's making me pick a shipping method, whichs adds the cost of shipping. Not looking for a $45 case, what it'll cost with shipping from this deal. I can get it from newegg for $39.99, and get free shipping.

Update:

Just wanted to let people know before they were hit by the high shipping fee.

This info has been sent over to Sales and I'm seeing what I can do, because, why buy a refurb for the same/more than a new one? Not sure why the Shipping is what it is.... I'll update when I get word back.

I would not even consider a 'refurbished' chassis unless it was less than 50% of the lowest retail price, including taxes, delivery, etc.

Nice prices though
What? We don't make customers ship back cases for defects, we typically would just replace the parts that have defects.

These are units that may have been returned, or damaged during shipping, etc.

I honestly don't see what the issue is. It makes no sense for them to sell a case for $20 if it'll cost them that or more to ship it to you. It'd be wiser to store the cases or give them away locally. It's only logical that bulk orders get free shipping.
