20% @ Sleevetown

[LastSonOfKrypton]

I know this isn't exactly a blu-ray bargain but they do sell replacement cases. Anyways I got an e-mail from sleevetown that they're running a 20% off coupon through August. I don't know if you have to be a returning customer or not but I figured I'd share just the same. I know a few members were excited about the 2 disc cases.

The coupon is "BIG20", enter it when you checkout

Mods: I'll leave this up to you, you can delete the thread if you deem it's not a "Blu-Ray Bargain". I don't care, just trying to help everyone that's helped me

Sounds like a bargain to me.

I've been ordering replacement DVD cases from Sleevetown (website is called Sleeve City)for several years and have been generally happy with their service...until now. When I saw they were selling replacement Bluray cases I was delighted as I needed to replace some damaged ones. I placed my first order and was extremely happy when I received them as the replacement cases were identical to the Sony type cases- with the locking tab on the spine-same quality everything- identical....
I decided to order another 50 recently and was disappointed when they arrived. They were a cheaper quality and more flimsy than the first shipment. The central locking hub that holds the disc in place is extremely stiff on some of the cases and does not release the disc easily as the Sony Bluray cases do. I fear this could lead to damage to the center of the disc with repeated removal and replacement of the disc from the case. Also, the locking tabs that keep the actual case closed is slightly different and dose not keep the case closed as well as the official Sony type. Worse, when closed, if you were to look at the slim side profile of the case, it tends to bend outward at the top and bottom.
So, if you want to order these, don't expect to get the exact replacement case similar to the ones you get on Sonys Blurays. This website used to also sell the other slightly thicker case Warner Bros. uses but I don't see those on their website now. Personally I prefer the slimmer type...but not the ones I disappointingly received recently...

Thanks for the valuable info, Blufan. That was the kind of detailed description I was looking for. I'm definitely going to pass now, but this is still a good deal for those that need the 2-disc cases.

The last batch I got a month ago were fine. I have no problem with their cases. I like a uniform look. They do have a return policy incase you're unhappy with them.
