Best store/website to buy empty cases?

Post by V3rtigo »

I'm looking for some PS2, Wii, Xbox, and generic DVD cases (clear, black, and multi-disc black). What's the best place?

So far I've wasted my time going to Target, Walmart, and BestBuy and come up with nothing.

I'm pretty sure you can get empty DVD cases fairly easy from Amazon.

Console specific cases are a bit harder to track down. My suggestion, if you only need to replace a few then your best bet would be to just buy some old crappy sports games and replace the cases. They usually cost next to nothing.

Supermedia store for generic cases. Otherwise ask your local Hollywood video or movie gallery if they have any as they take games out of their original cases

Generic black/clear cases I always use tapeonline for bulk:
http://www.tapeonline.com/disc-cases/case-type/dvd-case

I can sometimes get a better deal locally (best thus far was .10 each for 100 full size dvd cases) but overall tapeonline usually wins out. Plus they have two forms of quad cases and hex cases. Now if only I could find as good of a deal on red and blue cases.
