How is the case part of it? Worth $500?

Huh? ...are you offering me $500?
I did see some of those on GL once, but was in a hurry when I spotted 'em, and never got back to 'em. Don't know what they went for.

No, but the Pelican tool chest goes for around $500...I'm trying to decide if it's worth it.

...Ummmmm - well I didn't even pay $0.01 for mine. It was about to get thrown away, and I intercepted it.
I would not pay $500 for it simply because of how much it weighs when full of tools. This particular tool set is what I keep in my garage. It's great for that! IMO, the way I have my tools organized in my truck for trail use is way better than lugging that big heavy cool looking kit around.
