I just got mine. The sidepanels had the white paint kind of stripped off on the corners so i need to return it to newegg.

 

Just  a quick question though

 

Is the case's handle things (top and bottom) supposed to be sturdy? they feel like rubber to me and it's very flexible... and if i lay it flat on my desk, it wobbles with the slightest touch(like when i try to take an empty hdd sled out) is it supposed to be like this.

 

cause my first impression is that its a very cheaply built case. hope i just got a defect though, i was looking forward to using this case

Wobbling? Haha, no that is NOT normal for that case.

When i leave the case on top of my desk, or even the floor. and i touch it, it wobbles quite a bit... i can post a video if youd like.

I would really like to see that, there must be something seriously wrong with your case. I personally don't own the case but when I was at Inet (a computer retailer here in Sweden), they had the case on display and it felt very sturdy and robust.
