I SOLD THE LAST ONE
These were used originally to transport prosthetic devices. THEY ARE USED. Thus, they have a few scuff marks and scratches on the outside. No padded inserts or pull and pluck foam (both of which can be found on eBay or Amazon), latches and wheels work perfect. They are black. There are some Velcro straps that you can either leave in or cut out of the lid. They have wheels and pull up handles and will fit as carry-ons for airline's overhead bins. They can also hold two external locks. The ultimate in protection for the serious photographer. $65.00 each, plus FedEx Ground shipping. I am going to just put Ziplocks on the cases and ship it without a box. The FedEx folks say they do that with these cases all the time. Check these out on the web.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION: I kept one of these cases (I had three) and have done the following with it - there are a couple small bolts in the case that must have helped hold the original prosthetic devices. I took these out and put masking tape over the outside of the little holes, and filled the inside with epoxy. That returned the units to being totally water and dust proof. Then I washed down the outside and gave it a coat of clear, hard lacquer. I have ordered a set of padded dividers for the case (off of Amazon). Oh, also I cut the Velcro straps off the inside of the lid. There is a firm foam padding inside the lid that I will leave in there.

Here you go. I shot these with my iPhone. Note THESE ARE USED, and you are going to want some kind of padding inside. This can be either "pluck 'n Pull" foam, or a set of padded dividers, which I have in two if these cases. I keep 3 cameras in one along with a Speedlight, and all my lenses in the other. I also have the lid organizers in both cases. I just ordered a new set of dividers for the case I just purchased, along with these two extra ones. They are all three the same. I hope this helps.
I went back up on eBay and checked again. The cheapest I saw these cases without anything inside was right about $149.00.

That where a block of "pluck 'n pull" closed cell foam really works well. Check I out on eBay.

They are both still available. Before I PM either of you I will take one to the FedEx store and see what will be to ship to your state from Aizona. I will get back to you this afternoon with shipping.

I used one for my recent trip to the Galapagos Islands and it worked great. I had 2 bodies, 3 lenses (16-35,24-70,70-200), filters, chargers, straps, hoods, batteries, 1.4x,2.0x and memory cards. The only thing I couldn't fit in there was the 300mm f/2.8 lens which I put in my backpack as my second carry-on personal item. I originally got one with the pull and pluck interior but after messing with that decided that the padded interior with dividers was much more configurable and secure. I could also fit more in it this way. I bought the interior on eBay.
