    Does anyone know where I could find some good high-quality DVD cases? And perhaps somewhere to order from?

    I usually take the AOL cases and use them. But now they're starting to use cardboard and tin cases. Arg. But is you do ideed fins some plastic aol cases, use lighter fluid to remove the sticky remains of the stickers that AOL sticks on them

    I believe they sometimes sell them, like at BestBuy, around the cd cases area.

    EDIT: WOW! Nice link Darth_Gehenna

    eBay? Why bet and wager when you can buy for sure? Just curious.

    Ebay is home to many many actual retailers, not auctioneers.

    But, if you're not buying them in huge quantities, there's no point in buying a $3.24 case from someone on eBay.

    This from the guy who proudly told me he wouldn't be needing the MCG, since he typed in MC's by hand.



    Damn shame, damn shame.

    I didn't say I don't need the MCG, I just said I typed them in by hand. Speaking of which, that'd be a cool mansig! w00t!

    Let's see; here's the conversation:

    FigrinFilm (6:55:02 PM): Did you download Brent's markup code generator?
    FigrinFilm (6:55:06 PM): Do, it's like 56k.
    FigrinFilm (6:55:18 PM): I'm on 56k, it was done as soon as I clicked it.
    AWB1989 (6:55:21 PM): the cables go in the top left... memory cards on the top right... on the bottom part, within the bottom part, the left is for controllers i think, the top right is for games I think, and the bottom right is for the system I think
    AWB1989 (6:55:27 PM): oh
    AWB1989 (6:55:30 PM): I did
    AWB1989 (6:55:36 PM): I type markups out myself:-D
    FigrinFilm (6:55:43 PM): Ditto.
    FigrinFilm (6:55:45 PM): See ST.

    Let it be said this is a constitutional felony. I didn't say he could post that.





    If anyone corrects me on the felony thing, I'll smother a small puppy.

    first i dont bid and wager on ebay, buy it now is my friend =). second there are certain "stores" on ebay, which i buy through, not some weirdo who has a bad rep. finally, i agree ebays not the greatest place to get one case, but we usually get installments of 25, and it comes out cheaper this way then if i went out to best buy and got them(my dad has a wedding video buisness so we go through them like crazy).

    For the best service and generally best price, goto www.rima.com They have 100 pack of dvd cases for $24.95, which is damn cheap. Sure, you may not need 100, but if you buy them at Wal-Mart they will cost at least $1.25 each.

    Clickie.

    Does that work for mini CDs? DVDs? Mini DVDs? I thought these were like $1200++. Or does it not print labels onto CD/DVDs, and it looks like it does?

    Try warehouse stores like BJs, Sam's Club or Costco. I was in BJs a week or two ago and they had a 30 pack of DVD cases for $10 or so.
