It is better to die fighting evil than to live under it.

I usually get all my stuff from mouser.com. Huge site though, can be a bit of a pain if you don't know exactly what it is you're looking for.
Here's 7,783 project cases for you to browse

I avoid Flea bay like the Plegue. Every one wants Pay Pal and It not only sucks but requires a bank account.

I don't do Banks.

Cash, Gold, Silver or Barter.

Do as I often do and make your own out of styreen or old plastic TV housings etc its suprising what results you can get with a little plastic pipe glue as plumers use and scrap bits and bops and time of course.
My minipulse 3 housing was made totaly out of scrap upvc facia, Toshiba portable tv, and some styreen that was hanging about, check it out, not even painted and it looks ok.
The good thing about DIY housings is you build the housing around the project not the other way round like normal.

Good idea but not everybody has a TV to scrap for the plastic case. On the other hand they might have and old computer or an old VCRthat has a metal cover. The side panels of an old computer the VCR cover are good sources of aluminum sheet metal and with a few pop rivets and short sheet metal screws could make a good sturdy case.
