Custom Cases for NES Games in the EU (Germany)

[Quadrubo]

I'm looking for some custom cases which are compatible with the artworks of the cover project to buy for my collection of NES games, the only ones I found so far where the ones from customgamecases.com (they only come with cover art and the shipping to Germany costs way too much), the Universal Game Cases which aren't produced anymore and the Bitbox where Shipping is also way too high. Does anyone know a good German / European alternative for buying Retro Game Cases? Thanks in advance

customgamecases.com has blank cases for NES also but they just currently out of stock (says should be back in 5 4 weeks, December 18th?).

Shipping on large items will always suck.

I have the same problem for my NES games here in Germany. For my SNES and N64 games I used the UGCs, but I don't want to destroy the UGCs for NES games. I both like the BitBoxes and the ones from Customgamecases. But shipping costs about 50$ at customgamecases.com and 140$ (!!!; what the hell?) at stoneagegamer.com ! And remember we still have to pay the tax and duty here in Germany. That's definitely too much.

Did you find anything here, Quadrubo? Maybe it's an option to share an order or try services like MyUS.com...

Hi Guys!

I literally just stopped by to click on some of the random threads going on right now and stumbled on this one!

I may have a solution for you guys in Germany! Right now, as I type this, I am working with a Video Game store/site in Germany you may know of it. dragonbox.de

They are only planning on buying Genesis/ MD cases... however, I bet if you all want these cases in Germany email them!! Right now they are wanting to buy a few pallets so adding other case types for them really shouldn't be too much of a cost for them..... and the end prices to you guys in the area would be SOOOO much cheaper then what I could even offer, even at a loss.

Message them! Let them know you want them to add (whatever) case to their open order with me.

Hey,

I'm definitely gonna send them an E-Mail. I don't know much about this kind of stuff but do you think they will buy them regularly and this kind of thing will be sustainable.
As a temporary solution I bought some UGCs from Zedlabs. I don't want to buy the next kind of Case if I don't know if I they'll be available if you know what I mean.

Thanks for the great offer with dragonbox. I really don't like the UGCs (cheap Quality, expense right now, etc.) and it would be great if I could finally pickup some good cases without having to pay 150€ to shipping

Yes, they bought a few Genesis cases a few months ago to check them out and they really like the quality of the cases we make. So for this first round they wanted to do a half run, and if all goes well. (Which it will once people know these are there) they will be back for much more.
