If anyone is looking for a good artisan case, I'd recommend a "Hauteware" off taobao. They have listings for
smoked and
transparent blue. I'd seen people post pictures of them here and there, but never knew how to find one myself. I stumbled across it by chance one day and ordered 1 of the smoked ones via superbuy. The shipping to the US cost as much as the item itself, about $17, which I had not been expecting. C'est la vie, I thought.
However when I opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised to see that I had gotten an extra one (completely transparent, which is not listed on taobao for whatever reason) for free. So it was like I really paid for two, with free shipping. YMMV with this though.
PROS:
- Made of nice thick acrylic
- Lid holds firmly with a friction fit; can turn upside down without **** falling out
- Depth seems good. The tallest cap I own is an otter and there's about 1-1.5cm of clearance left over.
- Good QC, arrived with no scratches and all edges are finished well
CONS:
- Fingerprint magnet and needs to be cleaned each time for cap photography
Otherwise I'm very happy with them.
EDIT: apparently they sell
this monstrosity as well, for all the ballaz out there
