Title: How much do you pay for game covers/cases?

With shipping they cost me about $0.40 a piece. Is there anywhere else to get them cheaper? I like to keep my games with manuals in a case together and i'm running low on cases.

Here they sell for around 1,00 euro a piece excluding shipping. The auctions that I've followed seem to generally end at 1,50 euro including shipping a piece...so around 1,85 dollars a piece...that's around three times what they go for on US eBay (if not more). You guys are lucky! ;)

I might be able to help out here. I'll let you all know by the end of the week what I can get ahold of and see if anyone is interested.

Just buy very large lots and you can get them for about .25 cents each. I bought a lot of 500 once and only paid like .13 each or somethin.

I won some more, if only people knew how to title things right they'd probably make more money ;D

When I buy large game lots, I keep the games I need and the dust sleeves. I haven't ever needed to buy any dust sleeves, and right now I have enough for every game I own (around 700 of them).

Ok, sorry it took so long to get back to everyone here. If anyone needs any black game sleves let me know. I'll charge $0.30 a piece with shipping included. Minimum purchase of 40. You will get a good mix of "nintendo" sleeves and regular black sleeves. I have about 200 total. I also have a bunch of the hard plastic rental cases. If anyone is interested in those let me know and we can work out a price.

I'm interested in some Justabum, I don't want to take them all if someone else is interested but I will get at least 40 or more If I can. I'll be heading back to Ny in a few days so I can get some then.

I bought a lot of 100 from the US for $30. With the shipping at the same amount it was still about half the price they go for over here in Sweden. Sold off the ones i didn't need and got the ones i kept for free.

What about those plastic folding boxes that have recently showed up? completely incase the game box.
Bronty had one incasing chubby cherub in one post, and I've seen seller's on ebay with them.

Is anyone planning on buying a large set and selling off in smaller batches?
