Anybody know if these diecast power strip enclosures are available online anywhere? I found this picture on another forum. The item in question was purchased from ebay. Image carries a watermark from the ebay seller who I've already contacted, but have not received a reply. I'm assuming he doesn't carry them anymore.
I've tried a Google search but this item could be described a number of different ways (in AU they're called power boards for instance). I couldn't locate them, so figured I'd see if anyone has seen them in their cyber travels.
(I'm aware of a similar Oyaide branded enclosure but the cost of that one is excessive.)

The one in the pic looks pretty darn expensive. Like a valve cover for a V8.(I'm aware of a similar Oyaide branded enclosure but the cost of that one is excessive.)

Apparently he only paid 0.99c plus shipping. The post was from 1998 but obviously he just got lucky and was the only bidder.
Naturally I don't expect to get one for anything like that amount 🙄

HOLY COW, the mother lode! Thanks for the heads up Big E!
I'll send them an email when I get to work and hopefully I can get some sort of price list. I'll let you know what I find.
Hello all, just a quick note here, not to insult lowpoke, but that is actually a milled enclosure, not diecast. Some damn nice machine work from what I see. Even if you were to order something like that in quantity, you are probably looking at $50/ea (US) for the enclosure. Then probably around $25-35ea (US) for the cover. Yes, getting them made in China, etc. will be cheaper, but not that much. The dude who got it for $0.99 scored.
Peace,
Dave

You're absolutely right Dave, now that I look at it closely I can see it's milled.
I don't know about the U.S., but I can tell you that getting them from China will be significantly less than here in Australia.
Hello lowpoke, I agree that China is much cheaper than buying something made in the USA, but I can't think that the difference would be that much.😱
If so, then the rest of the world is in even more trouble than we thought!
Peace,

@ BigE,
Due to their lack of a comprehensive price list, I just got a quote for one of the many styles they have (pictured below) which costs US$174.50 per unit!
This is on a par with the cost of the Oyaide product unfortunately.

Yeah! These look pretty good. I check in there often, I'm surprised I haven't noticed these before! Prices are a little more affordable. Thanks for the reminder!
