Where to buy DVD cases?

Chet_F · 03-27-2003, 04:02 PM

I tried doing a search but I have the hardest time getting ANY results. I wish we had the ability to use the google interface, I can find just about anything using it - even obscure computer parts....well I digress.

Recommendations on websites for single/double/multipack DVD cases?

Thanks

I scored about 80 DVD cases from Blockbuster last night for a total of $0.00 . I couldn't believe it. I'm looking at this huge bag of cases sitting by the door. So I ask the cashier "Are those going in the garbage?" She replies "Yep" So I ask "Do you mind if I take them for ya?" "Go ahead." So 80 DVD cases out the door for $0 . So far I've found 1 double amray but the rest are single. Just thought I'd mention this so others might be able to take advantage.

Good luck

You could just call up AOL & Earthlink and ask for the free disc to get a free month worth of service. After the course of a year, you'll prolly get dozens of discs in the DVD-type cases...

Yea, but those stickers SUCK! I have about 10 of those at home and I have the hardest time getting the sticker off, even with goo be gone. Then when your done the cases look scuffed.

robertlp, do they always send em in DVD style cases. I often get them in cardboard mailers.

Another good source is www.cyberdisk.org .

I have ordered from them twice and been pretty happy with their keepcases.

I got tired of waiting for inetdvd to get stock of the "slim" dual cases, so I went with www.sleevetown.com instead. No complaints.
