What kind of case do you use?

I'd like to get a case for my oud but I don't really know what to get or where to get it from. I've only heard bad things about the Sukar cases you can find on ebay. A case from Nazih would cost around $450 to get to the USA. Does Shehata sell cases? I know Jameel plans on offering cases soon, they look good.

What are you guys using right now?

Nazih uses two different cases- he either sells a (thats what rami said) sukar, or he has these nice almost-form-fitting ones- I have the latter- did you contact nazih about the case? I think you can also buy one directly from sukar- and guess what!? they are real... (lol. just another ebay joke to keep the canon alive.)

I know Rami (palestine48) bought one on ebay from a seller in San Francisco and it was a real sukar, and it's nice too- I seen it.

good luck jason-
