Wanted - Anyone got a STE case knocking about?

Bought an STE last year, fully working, but the lower case disintegrated when I took the bloody bubble wrap off!

Be a shame if it didn't find a housing - wondered if anyone had a spare full STE case, or even just the lower part if not the full case?

I'm UK based, and obviously i'd be buying it, lol.

Cheers!

John

I have a full STE case lying about, it is not in terrific shape. The lower part of the case is in reasonable condition, bit yellowed but intact. The top part however has a nasty cut where the floppydrive used to be, it's also a 520STFM top case.....

If you're interested I could post some pictures.

If you aren't worried about the extended joypad ports, then a normal ST case will work fine, which is how my first STE started off.

The standard ST case (Well mine did at least) had molding marks on the inside, so it would have been possible to easily dremel it out to the correct dimensions using the lines as a guide.
