The case is road-used, and a little beat up, but only cosmetically. Not worth buying new considering the price difference and the condition of this case. Still 100% road worthy! Suitcase-like wheels and telescoping handle makes for much easier transport of heavy keyboards (this was used for a Yamaha DX-7). Zippers and wheels still work fine, and padding is excellent. Outer pocket for cords and pedals. Since it's semi-rigid, some care must be given when transporting. Certainly not as protective as a rigid case, but also not nearly as heavy (or costly). Transporting in a car or van makes the most sense, which is what I did.
