Intro:
Hi, this will be my first post in lowyat.
I am from the Philippines, a photography hobbyist, mainly focusing on landscapes and travel.
I previously shoot with nikon, now shifted to fuji.
I came to Malaysia for work, in the IT field.

Situation:
Back at home, I own a hard case which is where I usually store my gears. It was quite big, did not bother to bring it here.
Now I am looking for a new hard case here in KL, medium size preferred, maybe 15inX12inX6in or anything around that size.
I already search thru some buy and sell sites here in KL and in this forum, did not found what I was looking for.
Yesterday, I was at pertama complex (foto selangor and intl camera svc), and last week I was at berjaya (acce camera and altech)
Mostly are too expensive for me, nanuk brands around 400RM+ and pelican $$$$.

Question:
Do you know where can I find one that is less than 100RM ?
Please recommend a store or any hints, preferably around KL area, im staying near masjid jamek btw.
Im ok with those unbranded or chinese knock-offs brands.
Please do shoot me a PM / reply / whatsapp if you can give info.

Thanks,
gd 011.36211.521

No point of buying knock off hard cases. They’re crap.
If you are buying one, just get one that’s shockproof, waterproof and one that you can sit or stand on.
I use them a lot for my cinema cameras and I think buying a good one will go a long way.

If weight is a concern go with a Nanuk, if you want something that can be thrown around and last for a long long time go with a Pelican.
