Ok ok i get the point dun need to get so worked up. The point is though, that it is a bit too much 2 expect normal stuff on a half-priced item. Yes they do jack the prices but isn't it a bit too harsh to demand a hardcase? I mean, yes their service suck, blablabla we have heard all that. But the sale is, to me a good time to satisfy GAS. Can't we just be satisfied with what we got and not hanker for more? Of course we all have different opinions but some of us here don't need to be so blatant. And btw, $50 is not a small sum but for a good hardcase, yes i wld pay. Wldn't everyone here do the same thing? As 4 ur friends who got the case, all i can say is good 4 them.
