Perhaps howwon is the official shop4tech dealer in Western Canada? Or he should be at least!

100 bags for $6.00 is fine by me. It's the $20 shipping to Canada that's borderline insanity!

You got PM.

I thought my 500 was alot

I think he also collects DVD steels

Waiterguy · 10-17-2009, 01:10 AM

I bought some of the bags from Shoptech and they are a little long....do you guys just trim a bit and use a piece of tape? Just wondering.

I leave mine long and just use a small piece of tape.

Just trying to do some market research. If there were custom acryllic cases made availible that would snugly fit and protect BR steelbooks would there be an interest? And how much would you be willing to pay per case?

I have access to manufacturing in China, wondering if this would be a worthwhile venture. Let me know your feedback. Thanks

there are, jw, i know has them , i dont know now, but I got a few from him....but my dilemma is if they made some cases to fit the steelbooks with their slipcovers as the ones that I have don't fit them....and also for the jumbo steels...

Imti · 10-23-2009, 03:48 PM

I was using the ALpha Security cases and my collection started to look like an eye score. I ended up giving it away. Acrylic cases might be too heavy and harsh rubbing against the steelbooks. A light weight clear plastic box might me a better solution, like the stuff blister packs are made out of.

Thanks

I found this. Something like this for steelbooks would be a good idea and maybe more transparent.

do you guys know that clear film that they put on Ipods? they also have it on cars to stop from rock chips and such.

do you think an adhesive film would work? Something like this: http://www.clearviewskins.com/servlet/StoreFront

I open mine... so I doubt it would work on the ones that arent opened....

yeah maybe they should do something like that for steelbooks, though it wont protect from dents

Could anyone in US get a 500 pack and send to Canada for me. I can pay through Pay pal and would gladly tip with a 100 pack.

Here is the link of what i want:

http://www.shop4tech.com/item1674.html

Having seen both, I prefer the cheaper bag from shop4tech. They are slightly different from each other.

Thanks in advance

Check with howwon. He should have some for you, and he is in Canada already.

I just saw this on ebay? What you guys think? Is it worth buying? I have ordered some sleeves, but i thought these would look so much more slick (came across them while looking for steels).

victors · 10-24-2009, 02:56 PM

no way I'm gonna spend that money.. would need at least 200...

I use those - they're great

Would be awesome if they also protected the lower part of the SB, but they're still great

Definitely better than any standard sleeves with joining on the spine - that looks really bad on the shelf...

Are these like a plastic slipcover? I would be scared of scratches from slipping it on and off. I have seen a game steelbook that has a plastic slipcover over it, and there were minor scratches all across the covers from sliipping it on and off.
