2007 Thermaltake Armor+ VH6000BWS Computer Case w/Accessories - 10 Slot XL-ATX
This absolute behemoth of a case is in great condition and nearly complete, it's loaded with features and drive bays and weighs over 30lbs empty. Not your average computer case, and it's difficult to actually appreciate just how big it is from pictures alone. The solid steel side panel alone is larger than (and feels like it weighs more than) most modern cases. The acrylic side panel is in overall decent condition, but has pretty typical amount of scuffing and some scratches like those tend to end up with.This case is loaded with oddball features: a sliding top storage compartment, swing-out aluminum front corner guards, four front panel USB 2.0 and even an eSATA port, a locking side panel on spring-loaded hold-downs, an adjustable power supply support, ten (count 'em, ten) expansion slots for Extended/XL ATX motherboards, a full slide-out motherboard tray, a drawer that slots into the quick release 5.25" drive bays (of which there are seven), five built in and two optional quick release HDD trays, weird plastic quick release expansion card holders (five of which are broken)... It's a lot to take in.
Also, the plastic swoop overhang at the back of the case that really looks like a handle and really feels like a handle is in fact, not at handle at all, hence the very definitive "NOT a handle" sticker whose warning I would certainly heed. It takes some solid finger strength to move this thing around when it's fully loaded.
I do want to point out the flaws:-As mentioned, five of the ten quick release expansion card holders are broken, but they are pretty cheesy and I wouldn't rely on the intact ones either. The plastic rack they mount on can very easily be unscrewed and removed entirely, which I'd recommend.-It's missing one of the expansion slot blanking plates, so there are 9 out of the original 10.-The side fan makes a bit of noise, particularly when cold since it seems to come and go sometimes. It's cool and lights up the whole side of the case up with blue LEDs, but be ready to replace it or forego it entirely.
-The front fan has been replaced and is a generic non-LED Thermaltake 120mm 3-Pin, and there is currently no back fan so I'd suggest adding a 120mm there too. Despite the upper vent, there is no provision to mount fans to the top of the case. There is an included plastic bracket to add another 120mm fan behind the main stack of 3.5" drive bays.And... that's about it! As said before, overall the case is in used but pretty solid condition overall and all of the front panel electronics work as they should. I love this thing and all of it's weird design quirks but the size makes it hard to justify keeping around after all these years. I unfortunately don't have the original factory box (or the airplane hanger it would take to store it) so it's going to take a lot of cardboard to ship this thing, if the shipping cost the system is giving you seems excessive send me a message and we'll see if we can improve it.Included with this listing:

Probably because nobody wanted to try to figure out how to ship one.
