Sorted...hard case for double bass

[oldslapper]

I will soon be down to just one double bass and no EUBs.

What I have left is not spectacular, but it's a 40 year old ply that sounds great to my neanderthal ears and it is transported in it's original cover.
I would like to give it a bit more protection, so had thought about getting one of the gear4music foam cases that come up now and again Ebay, but they are very rarely over this way (South West).
Also, I don't seem to be able to locate a supplier of hard cases that aren't £600 flightcases.

So the question is, has anyone got a case they'd be happy to sell me, or do you have advice on what else I should consider. I notice that many retailers sell gig bags that seem a lot of money, but do they offer protection?

As this should probably be in the wanted section, I will post there too.

Thanks for any help, or comments, you can offer.
