Anyone own this 500 count black aluminum carry case?

I'm looking for a travel case for my ASM circle/squares. I happened upon this cases:

And I was wondering if anyone owns one of these and if so, can you comment on it? The price seems way too reasonable for a decent case, but then who knows? I like the old school red interior and the black exterior, but I just wonder how sturdy such a case is.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Take a look at this link, there is mention of the 700 chip black case from PSO.

I prefer the Black cases over the normal Aluminum cases since they dont damage as easily. The interior on the Black cases are not as good looking but are adequate. The most notable difference is the lack of padding on the inside. I own the 700, 500 and 300. The 700 has no problems holding the weight even after lots of abuse so far knock on wood. And Ive had it for about a year.

I remember looking at one of those, because I too was attracted by the black/red.

I didn't buy it, though. As I recall, it was a pretty el-cheapo aluminum case. As a rule, I've found the "elite" and "executive" aluminum cases to be built better than the other aluminum poker chip cases.
