I'm looking for new CD cases, but I don't want the standard jewel case. I want a DVD style case with the height and width of a jewel case. Anyone know where I can get such a thing?

eBay can be your friend...

Or, http://www.supermediastore.com/cddvdpackaging.html

There are others of course, just search the internet for DVD cases or Amray cases or DVD packaging supplies.

i do a lot of business with Uline (clicky) - reasonably priced, great customer service* & super-fast shipping.

*WARNING: you will get their ENORMOUS printed catalog with every order no matter how many times you tell them not to send it.

I'm not looking for DVD cases. I've got a million of those, but I'm afraid that clients will think I'm sending them a DVD instead of an audio cd. So I'm looking for an Amray style case that is the same size as a CD jewel case. Didn't find anything at supermediastore or meritline or Uline.

I've had excellent experiences with MeritLine for media and cases... not sure if this is what you have in mind, but:

SCRATCH THAT - I JUST RE-READ THAT YOU CHECKED MERITLINE AND IT WASN'T THE CASE YOU WANTED - SORRY FOR THE DUMB POST.

Jeff-
Try here:

http://www.cddimensions.com/DVD-Case-Black-Half-Height-Size-100-Per-Box/productinfo/GEN-PB1-BLACK/

I have not tried them but I did a search for "Half size DVD cases".

Good Luck!

Jeffers has what I think you are looking for nailed. The half size Amaray case (a.k.a. CD Safe, Poly Jewel Case, or Trim Packs) is available here also:

I haven't seen those, Jeff, but I'd be hesitant selecting a funky case that won't fit into storage / shelves etc. (those amSome people are touchy about that and will throw them in a drawer (or other unfavorable bin) if they won't play nice with whatever storage the person has chosen.

I imagine you're trying to stand out or get away from jewel cases' horrible crack-y and break-y-ness, but it can backfire.

Just make sure that the dimensions aren't bigger than a jewel case so that they fit into any racks / storage that work for typical CDs.

Jeff,

I just looked back through my records, since those are the cases I used when I last sent out demos. I bought some from Supermediastore, but I just checked and they no longer sell them (or at least I couldn't find them). Another vendor I used no longer sells them, but the guy I bought them from on eBay still sells them. Shipping's a bit much, but a box of 100 or 200 isn't exactly light. Depending on the shipping cost from the place in Jeffer's link, the eBay guy may also be a good deal. Here's a link to his current inventory of them.

P.S. I just checked and I still have a bunch left from my last batch and I don't anticipate sending out CDs again (at least I don't think I will be), so depending upon how many you need we might be able to work something out. If you're interested, let me know. I have two different styles and I can send you specifics and pics if you'd like.

You might also check your local office supply store, Target or Best Buy.
