can't say I ever have but with the ends looking like that and it looks clear I'd say its probably a rental case even though most places only let you rent a few disc at a time?

hiya sg1,

nope, not a rental case. i didnt include a pic of the retail outer slip case or the reverse side with the retail sleeve. this is an official universal release.

I just picked up some of those in Canada, the same as daripper has shown. Less than a buck each.

I've seen the case (in the first post), but not for sale anywhere. Seems I remember a thread about this on another site (don't remember which) many months ago and nobody in that one knew where to buy them either.

The first two seasons of Beauty and the Beast come in the case in the first pic. The cases are only available in Australia so far as I know, but since tv shows are starting to be released in them in the US, I hope it is only a matter of time before we can get the cases here also.

BHD, your preview picture is the same type case that Adobe CS2 Suite comes in but I've never seen the case in a retail store anywhere.

neither have i. i had been using those FAT cases for the sets, but might just have to get the supermedia store cases for now....drat! all i really care about is that the outer plastic cover is clear and tight to the cases. nothing worse than "loose" coverings.

I found this case on a swedish site. I'm not sure if they deliver outside scandinavia. The picture is very bad but it looks like the case you got.

you have to scroll down a bit to see the case for six dvd's

really easy to find in Canada, they are for holding 4 to 12 cd or dvd. I have just started seeing clear in past 2 months.

Too Bad.. If I calculated the shipping right I would have to auction off my house to get these here in Canada. They only ship via Fedex International. Found em in Canada. But they have the 37 mm spine.

Yep anytime something that is shipping North of the boarder the price
just gets ridiculously expensive on shipping. Shocked

This thread is a great example of what this site is really about. Members helping members, open discussion. Those who joined just to download don't realize what they are missing by not taking advantage of what the forum has to offer.

Finally found them in Canada with a 27 mm spine. Now all I have to do is figure out how to change the spine size and I'm good to go! Oh yeah, and a template to print them Very Happy Very Happy

Thanks, I've been looking for a source for the 14mm cases. They are expensive though. Don't get the Australia cases. They ship to the US in flimsy boxes which get destroyed in transit.
