Nicholas,

If you have a Sam's Club in your area, look there first.  I recently saw a
very nice set of tool boxes (roller bearing drawers, heavey gauge, bottom
and top cabinets) for less than $800.  This was in Columbus Ohio, so you may
not find the same stock locally.  About 10 years ago I bought a set of nice
boxes from Sam's and it is still giving good service.
