Step 1. Keep steelbook sealed.
Step 2. Put sealed steelbook in additional protective sleeve.
Step 3. Put steelbook in hard plastic case.

Absolutely correct. I missed the no plastic bags. Imagine that poor factory seal rubbing back and forth against that cold hard plastic, i must look away

Alpha Keeper cases, the ones on ebay only fit DVD, you need the bluray size. Most distributors only sell to businesses due to the nature of the product

These are DVD sized, you need 476B model

I contacted Alpha directly and seeing if I can order some more or they can provide me a direct link. I use them when shipping internationally as its cheaper and protects the steel better than a box


Ok got a reply, they run 3.73 each and are sold by the case(72) If anyone was interested I could buy some more and split the box. I am sure they charge shipping but I havent gotten that quote yet

Yea canada would only be beneficial if you were going divide them up and use a flat rate box.
15 fit in the small box at 25.00 shipping is 5.90 each..
A LArge flat rate box is 32.00 and fits alot more
