Question Grado Headphone Case

Now that I have the HF-1's, I'd like to listen to them both at work and at home. I actually end up listening more at work, but no way am I leaving them here.

Other than repacking them into the signed box every night, does theer exist something like a headphone case that I could use for transportation?

Thanks.

I found a case on Ebay for about $20, although I think it looks low in quality. I also saw a seemingly officially licensed Grado case here:

Grado Headphone Carry Case HiFi Headphones

Only pitfall there is that I think the website is based in the UK, so if you live in the US like me, you have to pay more money since pounds are worth more than dollars...

I also saw somebody on a different forum that used a Bose QC 1 case for their Grado cans.

It's not official (at least I'm pretty sure it isn't). It fits my SR325i's pretty well. Some people have complained about it, but I think it's fine for storage and transport. The case is hard so it can be banged around a little (not that you should). I think it came out to like $40 shipped to the US. Not too bad in my opinion.

I could have just found something else that my headphones would fit in, but I was too lazy to shop around and look for something. With that caes, I knew the headphones would fit.
