[inferno_gn]

Hi there,

Well, I got an e-mail, it was mark at 38$, but when I checked, it was 30$. Maybe it's a good deal? After all, we did all bought those DVD-/+ Verbatim 100 spindles.

a while ago there was some "RetailPlus" brand going for ~$15... went back up to ~$18 i think.

the brand tho, was just a slip of paper shrinkwrapped onto the 100pc pkg. they're the same ones that stooples sell in their "stooples brand" pkging

If it were regular jewel cases, I might be on it. Don't like the slim ones.
When I print up the cover and back for a downloaded album, the regular jewel cases are better (since you can read on the spine).

I feel cold.

That might be me used to $5/150 dualsided plastic sleeves instead of actual cases though lol

i haven't seen reg.-sized JCs for a cheap price for a long time

that, and most big-box retailers are selling the slims most of the time.

heh, i'm glad i'm not the only one that has that preference

It really depends on how you use them. 30 cents per case is alright but I guess not too many of us will use more than 10 of these. Trust me, these cases are heavy, I have about 50 of them with discs inside and they weigh a ton. Fairly good for music CDs, but for your everyday storage, avoid.

i guess you're more used to paper sleeves and/or the cd/dvd-binder sleeves?


30c ea. is warm at best. i remember buying this same 100pk for ~$20 yrs ago at stooples.. that was a pretty good deal back then.
never seen it for that low since... might have been $25 once, IIRC, but nothing lower.

you could prbly find bulk pkgs for cheaper at your local compy store.

hehe i just want to add something regarding these cases..

i used to work at staples and we had those under the tent event where these were sold 2.99 for the same exact pack.


i bought 10 packs of 100... now as of today (6 years after) , i still have 300+ left.
thats probably the best purchase ever

$2.99 for 100pk ?!!?!?

how can they even manage to make profit off that?

that's hot. even if on clearance (which is a rare) i wouldn't be able to find 100pks selling for <$10 at a local compy store....

[DarKrID3r]

yes it was crazy hot indeed...

this was only at our local StOOpleS though... they setup a huge tent in the parking lot and they were selling stuff with rebates up to 80%.

at that time (maybe its still like this right now but IDK), COMPAQ/HP PC came with 2 other boxes with one french( plus all recovery, winXP and drivers CD), and one english package with all the cds..

These were on sale 3 bucks. so i grabbed around 15 winXP liscences and 15 keyboards for 45 $ ...

i also remember when stOOpleS stopped selling multi-brand cellphones... all the other brand phones were dropped to 2.97$ or 9.97$. i grabed like 5. The timecards were also dropped to 16 bucks for a 50$ card.. i got transferred 5 cards from another store since we did not have any left.. but they were expired since 2-3 months... Anyhow, i tried to activate them, and it worked... but instead of getting 50$ for a 50$ card, those expired cards gave me 100$ each. so i paid 5x16 = 80 bucks+tx for 500$ of cellphone minutes...


good ol' days
