I want to purchase a few Cooler Master TLF-R82 (http://www.coolermaster.com.hk/en/products/casefan/tlf-r82.html) blue LED fans but I can't find a retailer that has them.

Does anyone know where I can purchase them?

The TLF-R82 is the only one that I've seen dozens of pics that show it off and I really like what I see.

Cooler Guys have a very similar product but I don't know if it's the same thing or not. LINK (http://www.coolerguys.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=001&Product_Code=840556014126&Category_Code=F-80)

well coolermaster didnt make that fan by their own factory, they just bought it from some chinese factories

so if things are almost identicle, the chances are it is probably the same

i think this tri-light one from Antec looks pretty good too, see if u like it cause its easy to find

I really like the TRI colored fan but I don't think it would look good in my case. I went ahead and ordered a couple of the 4 LED fans from Cooler Guys because I couldn't find much difference in the specs with the TLF-R82. I only hope I'm not wrong. :P

The one thing I have against Cooler Guys is the shipping. It cost me 10 bucks to ship the fans 3 days UPS. They wanted 29 bucks for second day air UPS which is WAY too much for 2 items that only weigh a few ounces. 10 bucks is too much also and I had to think about really hard before I finally decided to go ahead and order them.
