SA-CD.net - SACD Jewel Cases (Probably the tenth thread on this, sorry!)

Post by Lunna May 21, 2014 (1 of 21)
Folks, where, in this late day and age, can one find these (preferably in the United States)? I assume the small hinge ones are unavailable, but given the (if even possible) deteriorating handling by the USPS of packages, cracked SACD jewel cases have become more of a problem than ever. As always, thanks!

You might want to try this place: http://m.uline.com/mt/www.uline.com/Product/AdvSearchResult.aspx?keywords=CD+Jewel+Cases+&un_jtt_src=Search&un_form_encoding=utf-8 They are very reasonable and have a very fast turnaround time on orders. The only drawbacks are that you need to buy them buy the case and you'll be receiving a catalog in the mail from them every month or so.

Thank you -just looked, but for some reason, don't see the link to SACD jewel cases - am I missing the obvious?

My bad. I overlooked that you were specifically looking for the heavy-hinged SACD cases. I've gotten SACDs in all types of cases, usually in the standard cd jewel box. You might want to shoot them an e-mail and run it by them. I've used them for packaging materials for work and they seem pretty good at chasing down hard to find items.

Acoustic Sounds has some double cases available but they have the new style hinge. They are out of the single cases. http://store.acousticsounds.com/d/13216/-SACD_Jewel_Case_Fliptray_2_discs-CD_Care

Thanks Cupboy - so odd. "Regular" large hinge SACD cases seem totally unavailable. Maybe Chandos knows something we don't, using regular cases? Hmmm - are we SACD fans really dinosaurs at this point?

I get more than a few cracked, if not destroyed, jewel cases that I'm stuck having to try to replace. My 'surplus' stock of cases is just about depleted at this point.
