It depends what your conceptioin of "nice" is. I personally don't like any of them. But if HAD to pick one, I would choose the first one (Diablo XKroma).
What are you looking for in a case? Size, # of drive bays, front ports, etc.? What will you be using this case for? Gaming? If so, then look for a case with good cooling.

You might want to look at www.newegg.com, they have a bigger selection.

It looks ok decent air flow. Plently of Space. Only buy it if you are after the look.

If you are unsure how about a antec case.

There are many that are under $75

Super Lan Boy $65.69

Or the

Antec PLUS1080AMG $59.99

The case you have chosen while looking nice arent very well built. Whille these ones look average but they got what counts good airflow ad inerior design.

Always go for performance. Sure nice looking things are.. well nice looking. But you can always come back later and make the "okay" looking cases nice looking. It is much harder to make a nice looking case perform as good as it looks. Its just easier to take a performance orientated case and mod it till you like it. If you dont get what I mean or if you want some damn good examples. Check out Paul Capellos work logs. He's a master at doing that kind of stuff.

Btw, What is your reason to do business with amazon? If you can help it... I would suggest Newegg.com. They are the masters of internet shopping. FANTASTIC service, GREAT prices, And PLENTY of reviews. I have done business with amazon before though, and they are pretty okay so dont fret over it if you can't help it. ^^
