I swear, I do not work nor have any interest personal or financial in the chain of discount stores called "Ollies." 
(I disclaim, because I mentioned another cool item I found there -- a book -- several weeks back.)
However, today I bought a second (another I picked up two weeks ago) gun case, from their location on Rt. 22 in Harrisburg, PA. The little "theirs / ours" price tag claims a retail price of $119 vs. the $50 they're selling it for. Such comparisons are of course to be taken with a grain of salt, but just now I looked for the same case on Amazon, and find that they were possibly understating the case: Amazon has the same thing on sale for $119, and say $129 is retail

I feel pretty good about $100 for two of what seem like decent cases (enough for four long guns), which is at the moment exactly the quantity of transport cases that I want / need. However, I also want to need more And since I am in the process of ordering my first AR lower (which I hope will become my first AR), maybe I should go ahead and get a third ...
Note: I got these in part because I'm going to move across the country shortly, in a medium-sized station wagon. I want guns in lockable, locked hard cases, except for CCW (to be carried only strictly in accordance with the web of state laws), and I didn't have any good long-gun cases.
Just thought I'd point this out to anyone in striking distance of an Ollie's location; their stock varies by store, but much of it's in common.
