    I'd buy 10 of them at that price!

    I see they offer free USA shipping, even better! Might as well go ahead and buy 20 of them!

    It's funny - just yesterday I brought somebody up to my rehearsal space - where I told him I only keep a small portion of my instruments. When we first walked in, he saw a long like of various guitar and mandolin cases leaning up against the wall and said 'this is only a small portion?'. I laughed and explained to him that the dozen cases and gig bags that he saw were all EMPTY. I told him that I was 'The King of Empty Cases'. Whenever I sell an instrument to a local music store or pawn shop, they don't give you any extra money if you give them the case - so, I just keep them for any future purchases . . . of if a friend is in need. So, even a $1 per case, I think I'll pass!
