madrue Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 I am finding it difficult locating somewhere I can buy cheap/2nd hand server cabinets. Any ideas? I am ideally after a 800mm deep (or deeper) 19" rack mount 9U cabinet. I could go bigger if need be. I've tried eBay and Google with no luck. Cheapest 1st hand is £140 including VAT and P&P. I want cheaper if possible.
Jamman960 Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 I've always been able to find a few on ebay, the smaller ones are a bit rarer though - most are the full 42u ones. They usually go for very little due to being collection only. Must admit theres not as many on at the moment as there have been when I've looked previously
Sylv3r Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 I am sure a sponsor on here sells refurbed cabinets. They will be along shortly i'm sure.
MatthewL Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 Where about's are you based? I may have something in one of my stores. Let me know.
MatthewL Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 Just seen a post in another thread, a little too far away from here.
OverWorked Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 I know ict-direct has a load of Dell cabs + servers in stock. I've just been speaking to him this week about the same. Give him a ring. Don't all rush at once. I haven't had chance to place my order yet.

Makes note to self to go and steal all John's cabinets over the weekend hehehe I would second that he has allsorts of goodies in stock drop them a line
madrue Posted June 21, 2009 Author Posted June 21, 2009 Found plenty of cabinets of eBay but none that are short and at least 700mm deep. I have a couple of 1U servers that are 680mm deep. They would usually be housed in 44U cabinets but I only have space for about 12U. Google is a minefield. Any suggestions on search phrases? I can try 2nd hand or used but doesn't return much.
