Keep or chuck it?

My Thermaltake Xaser III is now empty but I can't decide whether to just throw it away or keep hold of it.

It cost me ?20 about 4 years ago and has lasted well with only a few minor scratches, but the design is showing its age, it's very heavy as it's made from steel and it takes up a lot of space.

If it didn't cost me so much I wouldn't think twice about throwing it away.

What should I do?

Can't sell it on ebay as P&P would cost a fortune!

I'm a bit of a hoarder when it comes to computer parts.
I would try putting it in:
www.adtrader.co.uk
If that doesn't ork I would probably put it safely iin the attic, because you never know when a spare case might come in handy for a quick budget build.

I agree. I still have parts stored from my very first build - completely antiquated by today's standards, but they still work. Several parts found new life just over a year ago for my younger sisters. I hate throwing computer stuff away for the budget-build reason, and also, I'm 'that guy' family and friends come to when they're looking for an older part :-)
