Nolfoc, you can purchase single Viva Elite 4-disc cases from Casetopia. Here's a direct link to the 4-disc case:

Does anyone know where you can buy the UK style thicker Blu-ray cases from?

Thanks

Thanks

The only place I've seen them available for shipping to the US is on eBay. Other UK sites have them but I haven't found any that ship to the US.

Search for Amaray Blu-ray Case on eBay.

Thanks, but how do you know that they are the thicker ones? does it say so? I believe that the UK ones are 14mm correct?

Correct, the 1-disc UK ones are 14mm thick (2-disc are 15mm thick) and are made by Amaray.

You can tell by several factors: either Amaray is in the title (genuine Amaray BD cases start at 14mm thick), 14mm can be found in the title or description of the listing, and the sellers are usually International sellers which ship from the UK.

Great, Thanks, now I can replace some of my damaged cases from overseas orders.

thanks guys, i should have clarified from the start though.. I usually order from Casetopia i like their stuff the best and I know the BD case for Prince Caspien 3 disc is thicker then the elite and vortex 3 disc case from Casetopia, so i was wonder if their is a certain size for that case

I can't compare since I only have the 2-disc version of Prince Caspian. Can you post some pics of the case?

However, the genuine Viva Elite and Vortex cases are pretty standardized.

Viva Elite: 1, 2, & 3 disc (12.5mm); 4, 5, & 6 disc (15mm), 7, 8, 9 & 10 disc (25mm)
Vortex: 1 & 2 disc (11mm); 3 & 4 disc (15.8mm); 5 & 6 disc (21.8 mm)

It's possible something changed over time or that another brand of case, similar to the Vortex, was used.

I'm not aware of anyone finding the 7+ disc cases. So far the only cases which have been available are those which hold 6 discs or less.

Is there any place to get 7-disc cases or are they still unavailable?

To my knowledge they're still unavailable.

That's unfortunate. Thanks for the info though.

does anybody know what type of case does the angels and demons blu-ray have?

I was hoping to get some help regarding the type of case I need. I recently purchased Let Me In on Blu-ray via ebay. It was new, factory sealed and all, but the plastic on the outside of the case is very wrinkled. I have attached some pictures to help. Thanks.

that looks like elite case. You can find them on ebay or even here. I personally hate those because new movies come broken with those cases.

Thanks, I was thinking Elite since it doesn't have that little lock-latch on the side that the Vortex's seem to have. So will the artwork fit with pretty much any 2-disc Elite Blu-ray case?

Does anyone know where I can currently find the highest quality generic case? I bought some in the past from Super Media Store and they were ok but I would prefer something just a tad better. I know stock changes a lot at the various sites when it comes to the generic cases so I just wanted an up-to-date recommendation if anyone has bought any good generic cases lately. I really only need 25 but I could do 50 if the price/quality ratio is really good.

EDIT: I am looking to pay $.50/case shipped for brand cases or about $.35/case shipped for generic.. yes maybe I am cheap but there seem to be many options within these limits.
