cardbox - DIY vs ready made with poll

ok all - I am probably doing a photo cardbox. I am debating on DIY'ing it. thinking it would be cheaper than the box below...

cardbox

but when all is said and done, i dont know if it is worth it, or if it will look as nice, or if I will in fact save much money it seems as if it will come out to about the same... if anyone has made their own, was it cheaper than this? was it fairly easy? my other concern is that the box on teh site will only hold 100 cards... we are inviting about 275 people.... so cut that in half and it is a little more that 100 cards I guess...
also - the ready made one has a lock on it which i like...
any thoughts on which one would be better?!

That is the cardbox I am planning on buying! I just found it the other day and I LOVE IT! I was going to attempt to make one, but the photocardbox DIY is hard. I love the lock too.

I voted buy it!

Well you do have to put that one together but you dont have to cut or paint anything. I love it! Buy it!

thats what I am thinking - FH is particular and wants a white one - and all the white frames are icky, so id have to paint the frames etc... so i might just take the lazy route and buy this one lol and it locks too which i like!
