As I was checking out some of the previous posts here I noticed some very nice looking humidor style wooden cases that are not too expensive. Here are the links:

Well, I just kept on stashing cash from poker, and so far I have $1500 - figured that would be enough for chips, cards, and a nice case (or two 500s). I don't need to spend all the money, but I'm willing to. I figured that I might end up getting a high end case for $400+ from pc.com, since I had the cash - but would really prefer a nice travel case. After looking at the ones in the 30-50 range, I figured I might end up spending more. I recently learned that I might be able to switch my one-spot order to two spots. I'm not sure if I will yet, but if I do that means a case that is not as nice, to cover the extra cost.
After work yesterday I was looking at custom wooden cases on the internet - might be able to put some chip boxes in a nice empty case - I don't know. I'm was just a little surprised how few quality options there were.
I have lots of time left, so I'll keep shopping around, and report on any other cases I can get my hands on. It's difficult to tell what the internet pictures actually represent.
This might be beyond your price range, but after reading this thread I think you should check out a Hartmann Briefcase. http://www.hartmann.com/shop/product...collection=all
I think there's a luggage store in the Valley Fair Mall in San Jose that carries these.
Then some chip trays or racks, and some foam, and you'd have the classiest case I can think of.

Wow! Something that outprices Zero Halliburton!
There's also a couple of stores at the Stanford Shopping Center that carry Hartmann products as well. Nice as they are, I would think that it takes a lot of justification to spend $600 on a case for $1000 set of chips, but I guess a lot of it has to do with taste as well (I don't have that level of taste )

Thanks Capt. Lego. Wow - that's a nice case, but a little much.
I actually looked at briefcases online - haven't checked anyout in person but it's an option.....Figure when I'm in the shops doing my Christmas shopiing I will look some more.
