I don't think there was an official case for the Pi 1. I didn't see any for sale. I bought various third party cases for mine.

My thoughts too.


And my hunch is that the usual Pi accessory retailers probably work on very slim margins so stock turnover and not taking up shelf space (and working capital) will mean that such a low-demand item is unlikely to still be available.

Perhaps ask the forum Moderator to move this to the Wanted subforum and indicate your location - maybe a forum member will have a spare one they might sell to you?


However...

If you're in the UK you can have a case for the price of postage.
