7th gen. 160GB iPod Classic... protective cases?

I bought a 7th gen. 160GB iPod Classic recently, and would like to buy a high quality case!

This is the case that would be my dream case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16855999486

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/griffin-reflect-case-for-apple-ipod-classic-chrome/8 578354.p?id=1190411438273&skuId=8578354

Model: 8160-ICREFLCT
SKU: 8578354

There is a very high probability that I will never be able to purchase this case for my iPod.

Any good suggestions? Used cases are welcome! Any website links for products would also be appreciated.

P.S. I would prefer a good clear/translucent plastic hard shell case (like the one above) but it is not necessarily all I would consider. I have also heard of a good metal alloy Belkin case that some people like.

This is what I bought.

I've dropped mine several times, and it has sufficiently saved my iPod classic 160 GB thus far.

Personally, I prefer soft cases. Two suggestions... one, check out "bargain" stores like Big Lots and Ollie's. If you look hard enough and often enough (as they get different product in on a regular basis), you might get lucky. Two, if you live near a Best Buy, find out (or ask) where their closeout/clearance section is. I lucked out and found a $40 leather soft case on clearance for $7 there.

Also, it might be a good idea to check out woot.com (electronics section) on a daily basis... eventually, you'll probably see a case there you like at a ridiculously low price.
