What's up with the Elite 110?

Hi there guys,

 

I was looking for the Cooler Master Elite 110 for use in a home build. However, I was having trouble finding it in UK outlets, and wherever I could find it it was fairly expensive, compared to the Elite 130.

 

Ebay

Elite 130: £35-40

Elite 110: £90

 

Scan.co.uk

Elite 130: £40

Elite 110: £66

 

Does anyone have any idea why it's so expensive compared to its big brother, and why it's barely available?

 

Thanks,

It's expensive because it's barely available, same thing happens in my country with Silencio 352. Cooler master slow on the supply I guess. I would not get the 110 though, it's very cramped.

Maybe because it is higher end or is more difficult to design a smaller case with the same features. Its like Porsche when they made light versions of their cars that were faster but also came with no equipment and they cost more, because they were more special, i guess...

Might be due to the fact its no longer being produced.

Did it? Maybe because they don't want to produce it that much then? Just throwing things out there.  :wacko:

You probably thought since it has a lower name than the 130.

Yeah, I should've learnt from every other hardware. Never trust the numbers >.<

It wasn't even in stock on Scan, so you're probably right. I don't really have much space where I want to put it, but I am prepared to use an AIO if I need to.
