Corsair has their refurbished Carbide 500Rs on sale for $89.99. Use code "washington" to lower the price to $31.50 plus shipping. Great price on a great case! Enjoy!

P.S. Don't flame please, I don't find many deals and I rarely post at all lol.

Edit: Ok, I'm going to get flamed, shipping hurts. It was a little over $30 to ship to WV. Still not that bad of a price though.

Still not a bad price on this case. I guess it just gets less slick as you move further east.:O

Dang wish they would use FedEX as it would prob be cheaper

MattGrebttap 02-15-2013 06:49 PM

Shipping was $15 to Utah. Good deal. Thanks OP

That's technically for shipping it to south San Jose , but it's a close enough to drive to save $10-15;)

1093koney 02-15-2013 07:05 PM

I'm getting a stupid error lol, Gateway error, tax amount invalid. GRRRRR.....

1093koney 02-15-2013 07:08 PM

K I fixed it, guess you can only order one, so I just did two seperate orderes LOL. Thanks OP rep'ed, Total was $50 each case. Shipped to Orange Cali. Does the "washington" code work for anything else by chance?

emets31 02-15-2013 07:08 PM

Awesome discount, but shipping to NY is $31.35. Still a good deal after extra costs, but I don't want it that bad.

Same problem I've had with corsair deals in the past, good price, but shipping is crazy...
$33.50 to NY for me, still decent deal, but I agree I don't want it that bad...

foreinter 02-15-2013 07:35 PM

It's pretty damn good price. Too bad I already bought one from Newegg.

devdevil85 02-15-2013 07:35 PM

I would've saved $11.87 by going this route over new from Newegg during their last sale. Oh well. For those who are wanting this case, now is the time to get it!

Jasnah 02-15-2013 07:39 PM

Shipping is 15.51 for me. Not bad, but I'm looking for something a smidge cheaper.

laphroaigh 02-15-2013 07:43 PM

Thx op

Got 2 for $93 shipped

I'm with you. But I already bought this around Black Friday and have built my rig with it.

notjoker 02-15-2013 07:52 PM

great case, I've built my friend's desktop with this case and its by far the best case I've worked with for under $100

Telexen 02-15-2013 07:53 PM

Right about $50 shipped for me. I already have this case, and it's great. Considering buying it again just in case I try to build another system for someone.

n2wishn 02-15-2013 08:03 PM

I've never ordered from Corsair before. Does anyone have any experience with refurbs? Are their cases like new, minor defects etc? Thanks!

agureghian 02-15-2013 08:06 PM

any deals on full tower?

digitaltrav 02-15-2013 08:07 PM

$49.99 standard shipping to Wisconsin? Get real.

Nightroan 02-15-2013 08:10 PM

Nice find! $31.50 + $15 (CA) shipping for a good computer case.

Hydd 02-15-2013 08:10 PM

Picked one up for a project. Great deal!

Thanks OP!

soarwitheagles 02-15-2013 08:11 PM

Where the hell do I find the place to enter the code for the discount? I have tried it repeatedly and cannot find it.

bdazla 02-15-2013 08:12 PM

Awesome deal thanks, I had bought mine before the newegg sale for $100. Got both colors thanks!!

Holy Sh@# shipping kills for me.

kg21 02-15-2013 08:19 PM

Love this case and paid a lot more than this. Even though this is a refurb, thumbs up at this price.

PhillipV 02-15-2013 08:25 PM

this is not a deal!!!!

its so much cheaper if you buy it at newegg.
its $129.99 + $20off + $20 Rebate
so after rebate its $89.99

:eek: Hopefully you know that there's a discount "washington" code (Takes off $-58.53). Though this is a "refurbished" case, there shouldnt be any worry about its condition.

woodbutcher 02-15-2013 08:34 PM

$62.85 shipped to Illinois. Might as well buy from Newegg and receive a new one. I mean, just what does a "Refurbished" case entail?

WB

psy2cr8zy 02-15-2013 08:34 PM

I have the 500r in white and it's a great case. For this price it's a steal imo. I paid about $110 after mir. If you need a case for cheap this is it. Also it works great with the H100 and H100i AIO water coolers.

Rebel_IR 02-15-2013 08:38 PM

Only thing i would be concerned about is scratches and possibly bent parts. but for 50$ its worth checking out i guess o-o

andrewnguyener 02-15-2013 08:40 PM

It's not adding to cart for me. Anyone else have this problem?

JayC3270 02-15-2013 08:41 PM

OOS... sadly

imabored 02-15-2013 08:41 PM

white one is OOS

edit: oos as I was checking out.

vkgt 02-15-2013 08:41 PM

Tried to get it, hit submit with my CC info and BAM, OUT OF STOCK :(

doomon 02-15-2013 08:41 PM

Oos...>.<

thiennhu 02-15-2013 08:44 PM

Had it in my cart 30 minute ago, debating on the refurbished issue before clicking submit. Now it's OOS
Oh well I saved $50, or else I might bought it just for the looks.

oray 02-15-2013 08:49 PM

this is amazing price!

Hawk2007 02-15-2013 08:51 PM

How can a company that ships as much as corsair be that high with shipping? I mean, that's basically posted rates.

Corsair pays shipping for RMAs and what not all day long. They definitely have volume agreements with fedex or ups.

Digitalist 02-15-2013 08:52 PM

out of stock :(

Well its OOS so he can pay double the price and think its cheaper........

Blindingfury 02-15-2013 08:54 PM

damn, I purchased it at $91 dollars and just moved my system to it today!
Note to potential buyer:
no front esata, only 2x usb 3.0 and IEEE 1394 and audio/mic.
my side panel fan won't spin itself, probably defective and I googled and found there are a few cases with exact problem, they do allow RMA the side fan only.
the fan controller don't make any noticeable difference (in temp or noise) across different settings.
if you place a hdd at the bottom of the cage, make sure you have a straight SATA data and easy to bend power cable.

zeetes 02-15-2013 08:59 PM

I've been using the black version of this case since Dec '11 and it rocks. I have 4x SSDs and 2x SATA HDs, with a Corsair 850HX power supply, and it functions as both my workstation at home, as well as my VMware test server.

I only have the fans which came with it installed and my i5 2500k stays around 30c under load.

vdChild 02-15-2013 09:06 PM

does this coupon code work for any other cases?

NORDO 02-15-2013 09:10 PM

Great case... did my first build in one a couple months ago - it's a dream come true for cable management.

i7-3770k, Noctua NH-D14 cooler, 4x HDDs + SSD, optical drive, card reader... and tons and tons of space remaining.

Idles around 30C and maxes around 50-55C with all cores at full load (OCed to 4.2 GHz).

tejan0 02-15-2013 09:12 PM

Seemed like a pretty good deal if you could get it total with shipping for $45, but sadly, OOS. Guess I need to be faster.

roiei 02-15-2013 09:12 PM

good deal but OOS :/

wish i hadn't bought the 200r for $36 AR last week. im in CA too, shipping would have been a decent price.

tekniiiq 02-15-2013 10:48 PM

you can't buy refurb cases, people break or bend stuff lol

I was able to order 2 of these units before they went out of stock. A while back, I was able to order a CoolerMaster HAF X refurb for around $100 from CM store. It arrived looking brand new and I am using it now [see pic].

I just hope these two Corsair Carbide 500R's arrive looking and performing somewhat similar to the deal I was able to land from CM store!

Oh, BTW, shipping for me on this Corsair Carbide 500R was only $9 per case. I live about 2 hours away from their company.

Not a bad price for a computer case that is suppose to kick butt...I do have a concern though...I just noticed there are no top fans to vent the hot air out the top?

Soar

Sonu 02-15-2013 10:57 PM

This case is a dream.

NickW0069 02-15-2013 11:01 PM

DAMNIT I was going to replace my stupid huge annoying 600T case... Probably could have bought the 500R and sold my 600T with $50 ahead.

soarwitheagles 02-15-2013 11:28 PM

I just watched the video at Newegg and discovered these Carbide 500R cases can accept either dual 120mm fans at the top OR, get this, it accepts the Corsair H100 radiator and fans perfectly up top!

Wow, now that is impressive!

Soar

naruto02 02-15-2013 11:37 PM

damn i bought mines brand new for $70 AR a few weeks ago... oh well, this deal was OOS when i saw it anyways

SomeDooD123 02-15-2013 11:54 PM

Damn disappointed, I missed out.

Nathan0490 02-16-2013 01:50 AM

does it have a 2.5" front bay for multi card reader?

Four 5.25” drive bays
Six 3.5” hard drive bays with 2.5” compatibility

If you look at the side picture and the front picture, you'll see openings for the four 5.25" bays b/c they're usually for DVD drives, etc. The six 3.5/2.5" hard drive locations are where two vents are supposed to be. So I'd say unless you can somehow get an adapter for a 5.25" to a 2.5", I'd say no.

Edit: Those two vents are for 120mm fans.

I bought this reader for mine - style matches the case almost perfectly...

Thanks!

The difference in the grilles is far more obvious in the close-up photo than it is from a couple feet away, too. Perfect accessory for this case, as a 5.25" -> 3.5" adapter would just ruin the asthetics, in my opinion.

roiei 02-17-2013 03:04 PM

What do you think about the Cooler Master HAF 922 instead of this case?
Which one is better?
