After some web searching here's what I came up with. Same items in the same 
order as your list.

$ 54.99 Thermaltake
$199.99 Thermaltake (Most places I checked either didn't have this case and PS. 
or had higher prices than direct from TT.)
$109.99 Newegg
$189.99 Tiger Direct
$ 44.00 Kingston
$ 49.99 Tiger Direct Western Digital Caviar SE 160GB Hard Drive - 7200, 8MB, 
SATA-300, OEM
$ 69.99 Tiger Direct Western Digital Caviar SE16 500GB Hard Drive - 7200, 16MB, 
SATA-300, OEM
$129.99 Newegg  Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EACS 1TB SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard 
Drive - OEM
$ 44.99 Newegg Includes Nero 8
$199.99 Tiger Direct $169.99 after $30 rebate
$139.99 Newegg Microsoft Windows XP Professional 64Bit SP2C for System Builders 
- OEM

$1.137.90 Assemble it yourself.

If that $1900.35 includes all shipping, assembly and installing Windows, that's 
a pretty decent price and he's not making a huge amount of profit. If he's 
buying all the bits from one place, probably making less $ than buying from 
more than one source.

I'd skip the pair of 160 gig drives in favor of another 500 gig. Planning on 
having XP on one 160 and making it use the other 160 for its swap file? RAID 0 
the pair of 160's? 160 gig these days is getting pretty "small", especially 
when for a few dollars more you can get 200+ gigs.
