I looked to and did not see them.

The orange and green Viva Elites have shown up on eBay but it's not Casetopia that's selling them. Looks like the colored cases are becoming less scarce.

EDIT: Just noticed the South Korean seller is now selling the black cases in lots of 10. Still not great but better than what it cost to order one at a time.

These are on ebay? I will need to look there then.

To bad these are 2 disc, I want 1 disc.

I think they were just a little more than the regular 1-disc case. I got 20 blu, 5 green & 5 orange for just under $38. I asked about black, the rep said they didn't have any, but would look into getting some.

I may get me some orange cases from them. I'd like to put Rango, It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, and The Lorax in those orange ones.

LOL! I used my orange for: Rango, Great Pumpkin, and Halloween. I've got 24 black cases coming, so I might revisit the Halloween.

Does anyone have a link to Casetopia's ebay store?

What size? I'd be interested if they had green 11mm or 14mm, or orange 14mm 4-disc.

Hey guys...

Scanned the thread, haven't seen much talk about the new 3-disc Viva ELITE case where the tray is one disc and the hubs are on either side of the case itself.

As you also may be aware Disney has been doing that awful practice of stacking discs, especially 4 discs.

Well, I got Life of Pi 3D and it was in the new ELITE 3-disc. I put the Life of Pi discs in a standard ELITE 3-disc (with hubs on both sides of the tray). I then took another standard 3-disc and carefully took out that 2-sided tray and put that into the new ELITE 3-disc.

Voila - a 4 disc case that takes up no more room than a standard one! I used it for Wreck-It Ralph. No need to alter the cover art sheet (or o-sleeve for those who collect them).

I have several 4-disc stackers now and I need to know if anyone has been able to find the new ELITE 3-disc cases for sale?

I know I can buy these at Best Buy but I can never find them. Where are they?

They used to be with the computer accessories/media (i.e. CD-Rs, DVD-Rs, etc). However, i don't think every BBY carries them.

If you're talking about replacement cases in general I was told by my local BB that they dropped them from the store altogether.


On a side note, does anyone know where I can source a 2 disc clear PS3 case yet? I know they're out there because some of their collections releases come in them, but I can't find them anywhere to buy.

[arsenal_fan]

What do these cases cost at Best Buy? Mainly interested in some 2-disc cases.

[Visco.]

Thanks guys. I'm sure my store won't have them.

Anyone know of any place that still has a few of the original 22mm 5-disc Viva Elites?

I noticed some time ago the 5-disc case for the original Blade Runner release was cracked. I tried the 5-disc 22mm Vortex cases but because of the way the disc holders are designed into the case it won't hold the booklet.

They did have the 1 disc black cases in lots of 10 but it looks like all of those listings have currently been sold. Might want to keep checking back to see when they add new listings.

If anyone is interested, I have some Elite Blu-ray cases: 25 - single, 14 - 2disc, 3 - 3disc and 2 - 4disc. These are all solid; not the eco-friendly, and in good condition. I've been changing my blu's to thin cases; running out of shelf space.

I also have 19 - singles and 6 - 2disc cases not sure of the brand, they are
the ones with the flip/clip thing to open the case. (hate those).

Send me a private message or email bilkrak@yahoo.com
if interested. Probably wouldn't ask more than 25 cents per case.

You can get a pack of 25 from Discmakers for only $15 shipped. Better price than what BB probably had.
