I have no desire to have a custom box for a SNES repro. I love the cart and it would go well in the collection, the box is just going to be troublesome for me to keep around in none squashed form. I just love the look of NES and SNES carts. Now if the box was actually a UGC, and not cardboard, well then I would just store it with my SFC games (which will eventually all be in UGCs).

It will be a UGC, Fast! And if you really didn't want it, you could just re-use it for something else.

Well, no, because then I would have to mail the winner the artwork which would be much harder to mail with out the UGC. Or the winner would have to print the ark work themselves. But at any rate, I need to case in front of me so I can measure it to make a proper cover. I know I could probably get the dimensions online, but I like to measure it myself and do test prints too. :D

Any one ever print from Staples? I saw on their website that they have a printing/copy service. I was able to upload a cover and they gave me a price of $8. That doesn't seem too bad, as long as the quality is good. I'll hit up other local print shops either way, but I just thought I'd ask if any of you guys had any experience with them.
