Enclosures and acoustic damping to help quiet them.

Hello,

I have been searching for the Antec P150 in Germany. Has anybody seen it at a shop, or online shop?

Thanks

Here is an overview of Dutch webshops with the P150 on their site.
Most only have them on pre-order though.
My favorite Dutch webshop Azerty also has the case on pre-order for 146 euros.

I emailed frozen silicon (German web store) about the P150 after I read about it on SPCR. They got the P180 fairly quickly, so I had high hopes. They got back to me the next day: "Das Gehäuse werden wir anbieten, wenn Antec diese in Europa freigibt. Es kann allerdings noch ca. 6-9 Wochen dauern;-(((" That is, they'll offer it, but it will take 6 to 9 weeks until it's available from Antec. Note that I got this email about 6 weeks ago.

Edit/PS: So what do you guys think about the price? I guess the ~150 Euros the Dutch stores take will be the normal retail price for a few months. Not sure if I'll buy, yet, although I'd really like to.

Yep, same here, altought one shop list it as "in stock", I kinda doubt it, but I didn't planned to buy one before january.

Local prices is the same here : 210-240 CHF (130-150 EUR).

At geizhals or idealo there are still no listings of the P150. Seems strange when there are reports of it in Finland, UK and England. Hello Antec Rep, when is coming to Germany?

BTW 150 EUR is pretty steep when I'm planning to continue using my S12 430. :cry:

Hi,

i know that site, and i had contact with most of the shops on that list + some other shops. It's been on preorder for more than 6 weeks now. I contacted Antec Europe (NL) and they told me more than a week ago that the case had been shipped to the dutch distributor. Should have been @ retailers by now no?
I think The Netherlands and Germany are destined for the 2nd production batch maybe?

Perhaps Antec intends to solve the PSU problem with the ASUS boards before the debut in the Netherlands and Germany? Or perhaps they intend to introduce a version without a PSU? Or perhaps they intend to introduce a black version? Or perhaps that is all just wishful thinking... :lol:

Well i have a p150 reserved at a local shop and teh dealer called me last week stating the p150 is expected to hit their shelves on december 15th, so fingers crossed.
Or perhaps they intend to introduce a black version?
I actually really like the white. I even switched to a white Eizo 2410 lcd. Black is so.. Dell nowadays.. :D

This is actually really interesting, when I was bugging Antec about when the P150 would hit Sweden back in october/november, they said that the first shipment would hit Rotterdam in a week or so. It feels like the NL should have had it first in Europe... and I have had my P150 for several weeks now.

That's not interesting, it's just irritating. ;)

Pretty strange... They landed in France about a month ago...

Maybe you could try to get it through a french e-shop (recommended by me: ldlc.fr, materiel.net) ? But no idea whether they ship toward Germany...

Materiel.net doesn't seem to ship to Germany, ldlc.fr seems to charge nearly €87 (!) for shipping here. Or that's what I can deciver using my admittedly rust French. :) Thanks for the suggestion, though. I don't actually care much, I've postponed buying a new system to after Christmas anyway.

Yes, you were right, 87,50€ to ship it toward a EU country... You'd better live in a non-EU european country: only 55€. Quite strange it's cheaper...

That really is strange. Maybe it's because they have to charge 16?% VAT when shipping to EU countries - but why add it to the S&H fee...?

There are a lot of P150s in Sweden. I've seen them at several shops in Stockholm as well as at various online retailers.

People in Sweden can get it here:

If you have a friend in Sweden maybe he/she could ship the case to you?

Good luck!

In Germany, cyberport.de have them for €169,90 - sofort lieferbar, Versand angeblich nur €9,95.

In the UK, the only site I've found with a due date is mediaatlantic.com (not heard of them before) which seems to be expecting 20 more in stock today... peculiar.
