PC chassis maker CaseLabs goes bust and blames it on the US-China trade war

CaseLabs has announced it is filing for bankruptcy and going into liquidation. The custom PC case and accessory company puts the majority of the blame on US trade tariffs, which it states “cut deeply into our margins” at a very inopportune time. But some of the blame also lies in growing debt that the company was unable to pay off. CaseLabs is well-known for its industrial style cases available in various loadouts. These modular aluminium cases were also pretty pricey. Cases range in price from a couple hundred dollars to just shy of $1000 with all the extras. The flagship case, the Mercury S8, started out life at around $440. The company is attempting to fulfill as many outstanding orders as it possible can before it's all over, however, it looks unlikely that it will be able to get out every order still open. Part orders will supposedly be done and dusted before the shutters come down, but case customers won’t be so lucky. While the website is still online for the time being, it is no longer accepting any orders.
