That's not even my source. That's the source Devon was using as you know - go ahead and order from those guys if you want. Last time I checked with them they were charging about a dollar each and had a 2000 min order quantity. I might charge a little more but I'm also not requiring anybody to shell out $2k per shot.

Oh, and thanks for the support Atwood. Wink

Yes, I knew you would know who's source that was, that's why I mentioned that first. Grin

Actually that isn't where I would get them from either. I would go with my other source where you can buy them for $.50 or less plus shipping depending on the quantity.

$0.4900/piece @ 25
0.3700 @ 200
0.2800 @ 1000
0.2300 @ 5000

NGD, since your a mod here, you should start a thread and get a group buy together, there's enough collectors here that probably would be interested and maybe you could get the 5000@ .23 a piece that's only 1,150. If you could get 5 people to chip in and each get 1000 cases your only talking 230.00 per person saving you 50.00 on the .28 price of 1000 pieces.

Just an idea as long as atwood gives you the source

A normal nes box measures 5"x7"x7/8"

The plastic cases measure 5 3/8"x7 3/8"x1"

There aren't many companies that make these cases so there is a good chance this is the same place Dan gets his. And he charges how much? I'm not saying this is the same place, but if it is, someone might be taking advantage of other game collectors?

Just shut the hell up Tim. If you have a cheaper source good for your but you don't have to be a dick about it (assuming that it's physically possible for you to not be a complete dick in everything you do). I pay $1 each myself for them. I charge 1.50. Whoopdee fricking doo. It's not even worth the time which is why I don't bother advertisting them out. If people can get them cheaper somewhere else more power to 'em.

OK, here is the deal I will make for anyone that might be interested in any of the box protectors. NES or SNES.

$.50 each shipped in the continental USA. If shipping is international I will try and get you an exact quote depending on the amount of protectors and your location.

If anyone is interested send an email to atwoodt@grantps.net or send me a pm.

Tim

I really can't. You see I'm a "dick" and it cost me money to have them shipped to me and it costs money to have them shipped to whomever might want any. The shipping is included it that price.
I'm just trying to get these to ones that might want some at a descent price.

Why should someone else make a profit off these when all they would have to do is share this information.

Funny considering your ebay auction has a BIN at twice your cost. But no, that's not hypocritical or anything...

Especially when all you would have to do is "share the information" with other collectors and with this board as you mention above. But of course you'd hate it if I got cheap protectors, wouldn't you Tim? Pretty ironic that you come on asking for the info to be made public yet you won't do it yourself.

But hey we both know you wouldn't even be on this thread if my name hadn't been mentioned. Wink

I'm just glad that other people are going to get something positive out of your immaturity. Glad I could help Wink
