I'm so pleased now that I have replacement small hinged Super Jewel SACD cases, but I also need small hinged Super Jewel DVD-Audio cases. Anyone have a lead?

I have only one DVD-Audio in a large hinged case that everyone sells now. It seems most most DVD Audio releases went from the small hinged Super Jewel DVD-Audio cases to cardboard Digipak cases which house both DVD-Audio and CD. So there are very few that were ever in the large hinged cases.

I just received a lot of 50 brand new Silverline DVD-Audios that I got dirt cheap on eBay, problem about six of the have cracked cases and another six cases are broken. I was never a big fan of Silverline but so far I have liked about half of them. And some of them sound way better than I ever expected a Silverline to sound!

I don't want to cut the bottom inlay cards to fit the current DVD-Audio Super Jewel cases, any help will be appreciated.

If you do a search in ebay for "small hinge super jewel" you will find seller roylmail in the U.K. He sells both older style sacd and dvd-audio cases.

i recently checked their ebay page and it says they don't ship to the u.s. any other sources available (for the small-hinge sacd cases)?

If you are extremely polite to him and don't complain about the costs for royal mail postage to the US he will ship you a pack of ten of the narrow-hingers...

Roy has no stock left and (so far) cannot get replacements. For my latest order, I had to go elsewhere and settled for the broad hinge / 2CD type from another seller on e-Bay. It seems that the residual stocks of the narrow hinge cases have disappeared as Roy knows his sources.

Bummer... Last summer I ordered ten of the narrow-hinges from him, cost nearly USD50, but it was worth it; it really helped with the typical oop stuff from ebay that arrives with smashed cases due to flimsy packing... I guess I am an obsessed collector - - just gotta have a perfect jewel box!!

Hi folks,

What are the jewel cases that were used for the Mercury Living Presence SACDs called? Small hinged? Super Jewel Box New Hinge Standard?

I see from the various posts that there is more than one type of jewel case. Also, I see that one or two of the suppliers mentioned in this thread may no longer have these cases.

I'm looking for a few of these (clear colored) as well as a couple of the two-SACD cases. Does anyone know, as of now, who is selling these, and what specific kind of jewel case I should be looking for?

Thanks.

I think this link will prove helpful. They sell several different types. I have been getting all sorts of cases from them for years (including SACD) and they have been 100% reliable.

Thanks everyone. Do you know whether Sleeve City also has two-SACD jewel cases? I didn't see them when I looked on the site.
