Computer Case - DIY

Is building a computer case an 'uncomplicated undertaking'? I ship many PC's
overseas, and I get charged for the volume, is there a way of minimizing
this?
If I could somehow 'flatten' the case for shiping that would be nice ,
Thoughts?

Why don't you buy a thinner case and/or use riser cards. Switch to
building ITX boxes.

Well, there's THIS:

but I'd be a bit peeved if I ordered a system and that came in the mail,
unless it was explicitly described.

Well if that don't beat all; you'd think they would at least give you some foil to line the thing with.
