Not really on sale, seems to be a new lower price. Cosmos II $50 cheaper now at $299.99 and shipping is free with UPS 3 day
Its about the same final price as when I got mine. The difference is now you don't have to jump through any hoops to reach that price...
Interesting! What are the advantages over the HAF-X that I have been using?
Edit: The more I look, the more I want. But I need more details. It looks like this was priced at $350 vs. $200 for the HAF-X. Aside from more HD bays, and more fans (but smaller), what is driving the cost difference?

Bigger!
HAF X: 9.10" x 23.20" x 21.70"
Cosmos II: 13.5" x 27.7" x 26.1"
Theft proof! (too heavy to steal)
11 slots for GPUs
More mounting locations for more fans with a built-in 4-channel speed controller
Supports larger mobos
etc.
Cool. I though I had standardized on HAF-X. I really like having R-O-O-M to install things, change things, move things around...all WITHOUT cutting my hands. But I think I have a new standard.
About the fans though, how is the noise? The thing I really like about the HAF-X is that it uses really big and QUIET fans. How is the nose level on the Cosmos II in comparison?
The Cosmos II is also made by Coolermaster and would use the same Coolermaster fans so shouldn't be much difference.Cool. I though I had standardized on HAF-X.

Well yeah, but the kind of fans are very different. The HAF-X uses a couple huge fans, spinning slower. The Cosmos II uses normal sized fans, and lots of them.
Nope. The Cosmos II has one front intake 200mm fan pre-installed plus a second mount for a 120m fan. The top fan mounts accept x2 120mm fans, x2 140mm fans (my setup) or x1 200mm fan. Rear exhaust has a pre-installed 140mm fan but also accepts a 120mm fan. Lower HDD cage has x2 pre-installed 120mm fans. Other 120mm fan mount points includes rear facing GPU fan and x2 side GPU fans.
Separate cooling section for PSU, built-in multi-fan controller, room for 2 240x120mm rads and most importantly..... Style, style style....!!!!!
2nd edit: I think it also has wider internal dimensions.
