Where else can I order in Europe?

I'd suggest you use Double wide DVD-cases like I use, UGC sized covers fit nicely.
Also these are cheaper, way cheaper.

How the hell many times I've asked does anyone know European suplier for those, and you've never told me.

You butt! Not these round fleshy parts but the round thing in the middle.  ;)

I assume these are the ones:

http://www.rivierapublishing.co.uk/acatalog/info_836.html
http://www.rivierapublishing.co.uk/acatalog/info_835.html

Don't get too excited ... those are the 10 disc cases, mine are the 8 disc cases. The spine size is very different.  The 8 disc has a 15mm (0.59") spine and the 10 disc has a 25.4mm (1") spine.  The covers would take up much more space in that size case and would need a  completely remade spine.  :-\

EDIT:
Also, at a closer look it looks like these cases are made slightly different so it may have different dimensions entirely (i'm sure it still ha s a 1" spine though).  The website also states that the cases require you to by the "cd wallets separately" ... 10 cases without the cd wallets doesn't seem like that great of a deal for £9.00 ($14.72).

Yeah but I'd anyway need only 1-4 wallets per game.
same site sells those wallets £9 per 100 wallets so the extra invest is not that bad.

Besides I found these, the ones alone on the bottom row:
http://www.rivierapublishing.co.uk/acatalog/Half_Size_DVD_Cases__.html

More spesificly these:
http://www.rivierapublishing.co.uk/acatalog/info_185.html

10mm spine, so I'd assume about 8mm inspace, which is enough for 1CD or 2 CD games + manual.
Those other cases could be used for 4 CD games.

Hi there. Just wondering if anyone from Australia has bought UGC's and if so how much did it cost you? Thanks.

Go with doublewide DVD-cases, should be a lot cheaper.

Can you provide a pic as I'm unsure what you mean. I want a case that will store snes, master system, n64 and mega drive / genenis carts. :)

Just a DVD case that has 27-28mm wide spine, usually for holding 6-8 DVDs.
Just remove flaps from inside and it holds NES, SNES, N64 & many/all other  cartridge games nicely but loosely.
for more secure hold use foam (I don't)
UGC sized covers fit nicely. for perfect fit you have to strech image 5mm, but even without streching the covers look really good.

Here is pictures of my collection (part of it) showing these cases in use:
