Are there many fake Pelican cases out there, and if so, is there a good way to tell them apart?  Just came across a craigslist ad for a 1750 with foam for $160.  The guy says it's brand new but only has stock photos on the listing.  The price seems pretty darn good but if it's too good to be true...

If craigslist is involved, I'd be cautious; however, I've scored a few genuine Pelican 1720 cases with foam for about $140-$146 shipped each from Jet.com before they started adding tax. Still, craigslist

I got a used 1750 on craigslist for ~$75. It was missing one piece of foam.

The posting is gone now so I suppose it doesn't matter.  In the long run I'd rather pay 30-50 more and get it from somewhere legit.

I'm in MA, where are you located? I have a green 1750 that I would let go cheap, but I hate the thought of shipping it.

What is cheap? I can have a box delivered to you. Or you can just tape it up and slap a label on the case and I can have it picked up.

I have a Seahorse rifle case for my AR in .308 and it is a very good alternative to the Pelican rifle case.
