I have a bunch of cabinets like these that I got from Office Depot several years ago when they were about $200 apiece. I love them because they look good, are cheap, big enough to hold what I need and, because they are new, not beat-up, all matching color and don't need to be repainted.

They are light weight and cheaply made, but unless you are storing anvils they do they job. I store oil, hardware and tools in mine and they work fine.
I have bought used office furniture before, and I also think that is a good way to go, but sometimes it's hard to get multiple units that match (if you need more than one). Also, the heavy-duty used stuff can still be fairly expensive and is often beat-up, and needs to be repainted.
For some reason, the price on these at Office Depot has doubled since I bought mine and they never seem to have them in stock any more. I just checked their web site and they are showing them on sale for $159, but out of stock. Normally $389.
I will say one more thing about Office Depot while on the subject - I really don't like their sales policy on these things. If you arrange to pick the product up at the store, they still charge you a delivery fee if you have it shipped to the store from the warehouse. To me, that seems outrageous. So if they don't have it in-stock at the store, you might as well just have it delivered to your home, rather than ship to store.
Can't say for sure that the Amazon product is the same, but they look identical.
I really like the ones I have and am seriously considering buying a few more of the Amazon cabinets.
