It's newegg. And a large item. That's subject to damage. That might not arrive as described.

Isn't this avg price? Pretty sure this was MSRP when I bought one of these cases in 2020 or something.

$130 is inflated.

No I'm pretty sure $130 is accurate. I got this case open box from Microcenter in 2020 for $2 more than this deal.

My two cents on the case itself: It is a great case but I'd prefer if the back panel was removable instead of being another tempered glass pane on a hinge. Not sure why cables and the SATA SSDs need to be visible from the outside through the glass, and the glass gets in the way when you're working in the case.

While I didn't do this to mine (as it lives under the desk and I'm too old to give 2 sh**s about PC "looks") you can easily and nicely spray paint that glass panel on the inside, to suit your aesthetic style and desires.
Just an idea.

Case itself is great!

It looks like the front USB c is added via a cable that is optional on lian li site. The Newegg listing "looks" like this is included but.. anyone confirm?

I bought and returned this to Amazon a few weeks ago. My biggest problem was trying to get the three HDDs plugged in.
The three HDD mounts in the lower section are so close the power wires on my Thermaltake PSU wouldn't fit. The gaps between plugs on the SATA power cables are like 3" apart so you need to fold the cable in a way they don't want to fold and then the extra cable between the plugs needs to be folded down so you can close the side panel. Maybe with 90* adapters (up for the bottom HDD tray not down) it could have worked.

This case comes in two different configurations - one with the USB C and another with fan speed control switch. If the name says C, it has the USB C port included on the front panel.
I purchased it before BlackFriday and it was around $95. I have tracked the price of it until now and this is the lowest.
It is a great case.
As another person said, the space between the PSU cables and the HDD cage is a little tight, but you can move the HDD cage for the first time you are cabling. Once all cables were attached, I didn't need to fiddle with it much and so I'm good with that minor trouble.

I just picked up this case for $105 for Micro Center and rebuilt a system in it. No regrets. Between new thermal paste and the fantastic airflow I'm down 7-8C under gaming loads from my old high airflow case. Fantastic glass doors that open easily, great cable management, manual fan control, fits a beast of a power supply.

I bought mine on eBay. It's unfortunately a pretty expensive cable compared to others you can buy. Mine should finally be in today from overseas.

I think they designed it to use that hot swap adapter card. I was about to smash three angle data cables (one is hot glued to the drive from a mishap years ago) in mine but I don't open it often to matter.

Good case. Great air flow. Wayyyy better than the Corsair 100r I was using. My build is cool and quiet now. Even fixed the fan rattling I had on my 3070 since it doesn't have to work as hard on the case for cooling

Great case. I've been using it for my main gaming rig for about 2 years. Cooling performance is fantastic (Gamers Nexus has a great review), and I like the look of it. Lian Li cases are always solid build quality, this case is no exception. Easy enough to build a system, but you're not going to fit any expansion cards with a modern (fat-ass) GPU.
