I'd like recommendations for  3-4 shortboard travel coffin. It needs to be under 30 lbs so 4 boards and stuffing is less than 70 lbs and less than 10.5 feet so it meets the standards of American Airlines. The biggest board I'll put in there is 6'6".

Cost is a factor also if you have a suggestion where did you get it? Thanks!

I bought this one 5 years ago.

Been everywhere with it. 

Check with Kelly at anotheride.com.  He has some used ones.

I've been using the Creatures triple wide version of what purefunk identified and it's good, but it's a bitch to lug around with 3 boards and extras in there.  I'm going to get the quad wheely version, so leave one for me at anotheride

I have the bag LostSherpa linked to and it has been phenomenal.  Taken it to PR, DR, all over California, El Sal and haven't had a problem yet.  Got it off Craigslist from a guy who had a stash of boards down in CR and didn't need it anymore.

No Matter what , get one with wheels!!! if the bag loaded with boards it makes a big difference...So much easier to cruise through the terminals

Get "The Smuggler". Supposedly you can put 3 boards in and the airlines will only find two. Ingenious if it works.
