Title: Help - Video Store
Post by: NorseWrath on March 31, 2009, 03:01:47 PM
Hi I'm new to this forum  ;)
IDK if this is the exact place i should be posting this, but...

When I first saw this project I was impressed, and decided to case all my N64 games :)
I bought 30 cases from The Video Store Shopper Website.
I placed my order and I recieved an email confirmation and everything!

Today I just recieved another email from a manager(?) claiming they cannot sell me 30 cases only sleeves of 100.
I was just wondering, do you have to buy sleeves of 100? Was that a real email? From people who have bought cases from that place...

I replied with an angry email :(

Yeah... most of the places only sell in groups of 100.

I would have bought a sleeve of 100... but the website gave me the option of only puchasing 30... and then they email me saying its in the description! GRRR
Okay maybe I should have read more carefully but the webstie shouldn't allow people to buy less than 100!

I said I would purchase 100 if the shipping was free  :P I doubt they will do it though...

Anybody have 30 cases they'd be willing to sell?

As Mick said before most sites if they carry them require you to buy the in increments of 100.  Personally i bought 200 and I think i really need ~220.  For me, it all comes down to if i want to recase my collection then sell it or just sell as is when the time comes (~3 years).  I would think they would sell better if they were all in cases.

You might have better luck if you bought the 100 covers and then offered to sell the extras to other folks on this site.  I've seen members do that before and they seem to go quickly.

I did buy a case of 100 because they offered me a deal on shipping (not free but cheap) And anyways I wanted to buy more N64 games and SNES games so... I probably use a good amount of them. I might sell a few an ebay.
