Can you find double PSX jewel cases anywhere?

Post by Xeogred »

I looked around eBay a bit but didn't find anything. Were those dual cases just too exclusive or something? I guess an issue could be that a lot of games had varied slots depending on how many discs the game had.

Basically I'm just wondering if I could possibly get my hands on some new double sided/dual jewel cases. Would just be nice to transfer some of my PSX games to cleaner cases without cracks or huge stickers, etc... lol. But again, I guess a major issue could be finding ones with a specific amount of slots for the CD's...huh.

I don't think that they ever made those multi disc cases outside of the psx and dreamcast. So if your desperate to get some new ones you'll probably have to find a cheap game with the right case and pick that up. Hope I'm wrong thou.

Uh no, those double jewel cases are the same ones used for CD collections, so you can find them but it just takes a little effort at first.

Here's the company that I use to get my cases in both bulk and individual orders.

They can make custom/Sega CD/Saturn cases but the custom jobs can cost a pretty penny.

No, they definitely make them outside of psx/dreamcast. Double albums use them all the time.

However, the black inside part is almost exclusive I think...usually those don't have the spindle holders because only games are usually 3-4 cds long.

The place in the link I posted above sells them in 2CD, and 4CD configurations. The only way to get a 3CD configuration is to order them unassembled and simply not snap in the third CD spindle.

And yes they do come with the black inside tray.

Edit: Fixed spelling.

Excellent! Thanks a lot for the link, definitely what I was looking for.

And yeah, PC games use these too sometimes, along with what others mentioned above. Sorry if I confused anyone, lol.

Yeah I ran into the same problem a little while back and sent a few days researching suppliers when I found the site, so I try to help out anybody who needs them when I can. :D

Racket, if your reading this you should consider stocking these cases and adding them to your store!

Here's a great place to order CD cases from in all sorts of arrangements...

http://www.genesysdtp.com/

Also, if the black parts on the inside of your current cases are fine... you can actually use the backs from single CD cases to fix them. Both double and single CD cases use the same parts for where the outside artwork goes.

Wow! I can't believe I never thought of that, haha just ... wow. Definitely makes sense.

Well I ordered 10 new 3-4 holding chubby cases. Can't hurt to have some brand new ones anyways. But yeah, I actually think the black parts on the inside of most of my cases are in fact in good condition, it's mainly just the outside/cracks/stickers that annoy me. Can't believe that never crossed my mind, thanks for pointing it out. :lol:
