I was at a show recently where the people (Third Wave, I think) who make the
expansion chassis were demoing their hardware.  The suggested retail for their
4 slot boxes, both for the SE/30 and for NuBus machines was around $1100.  I
haven't seen them in mail order that I can remember.  The 8 slot versions went
for around $2000.
