Ive got an instroke, the cheaper one 3x7, had for 10yrs and it looks like when i bought it and its taken a beating. They arent cheap cheap but reasonable for a good case. The imitation ones fall apart.
I own an Instroke buffalo series bag and it does hold up very strong but then I got my custom Dennis Swift. It is a very beautiful bag that everyone compliments. If you don't mind waiting for the bag to be made, go talk with Swift! Mine only took about 2 months and I have been very happy! If you want something now to be shipped out, I would go with the Instroke.
The jb rugged does look good for the money also, ive never seen one so i looked and they do look like theyd do the trick. but the $75 for shipping is just silly.
Volturi or Justis if you want a nice case! I would stay away from the Chinese crap unless you are in China! It will cost $150 to ship both ways for it to be repaired!
My son and I both bought a customized one from John earlier this year before Vegas ~ fantastic cases :thumbup:
I think IndyQ did have some in stock which will save you a little shipping; however, if you want to customzie/personalize the case going direct is the way to go
I also agree with the JB rugged. I bought a 4x8 at seyberts for around 100, I used an apa code to get some money off. It protects my cues and works great. Cant beat the price.
Volturi or Justis if you want a nice case! I would stay away from the Chinese crap unless you are in China! It will cost $150 to ship both ways for it to be repaired!
Justis is 50% made in China and it costs the same to send a case to Indonesia as it does to China. Or more...my customer sent his volturi back for repair and spent $280.
We don't have people sending us cases from the USA to China. In the rare occasions that we need to fix a case we take care of it at little to no cost for the customer.
