Hi everyone -

Can you tell if a Blu-Ray disc is fake by the type of case it comes in?
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

But wait...according to the link you inserted, shipping cost is not free. Please try to add 20 items for example to cart and create your account, complete with address lets say the item will ship to california, with postal code of 90024, shipping cost for 20 items will be $12.28. I tried 3-disc BRM3-001S    Scanavo 3-Disc Blu-ray Case for 20pcs

Price                              $26.00
Shipping                        $12.28
---------------------------------------
Subtotal:                       $38.28
Shipping to PHL              $15.00 Estimated
---------------------------------------
Total:                             $ 53.28

Per item = $2.66 or Php110.0

Guys are you sure you want to buy these items? Mas tataas pa ito kc estimated lang inilagay ko sa shipping to phil. I ordered blu-ray case last year, 20pcs of 6-disc capacity but not from casetopia. As per experience, they packed the items with bubble wrapper and some styro kaya malaki ung box ng item.
Any suggestions?
Suggest ko source out locally nalang.

Thanks for the heads up brother...I think this'll only work with at least 100 units per case type.

Let's try another route maybe.

A hundred of each type is a small number considering the number of people who need single and 2-disc cases here. I myself need 10 singles and 10 doubles...

yup...considered that also...but these aren't different from the ones sold at like Cardinal.

Only cases to consider are the Viva Elite and Vortex cases which the major studios use for their BD releases.

Fellow collectors...hope we can get a head count on how many are interested in replacing your old/worn out cases already.

Thanks!!!

found a site with cheaper cases...Single disc Vortex cases at $.26 per piece for a case of 100. Or Elite singles for $.33 per piece. $.37 for 2 disc Elite cases...

http://www.discmakers.com/shop/ItemDetails.aspx?ItemID=BDR025-00002

I tried 100 cases for Elite singles & 2-disc cases...total cost with shipping to US address is $90. Don't know how much tax is but let's put it at $10 plus shipping to the PHL (which I don't know how much it would cost) but let's peg it at $20-$25...so total would be $125 shipped here (conservative estimate).

That's roughly P26.25 per case...interesting now huh? Now all we need to figure out is how many people need replacement cases...like I previously indicated, I'll be getting 10 single disc cases and 10 2disc cases.

Anybody?

To give you an idea and to help you guys to decide...

For 200 pcs as your example, here is my computation:

Price 200pcs                               $74
Shipping                                      16
-------------------------------------------
Subtotal                                       90
Tax  (8.25% California)                 7.4 Estimated
Subtotal                                       97.4
Shipping to Phil                            $70+25*
Total                                           $192.4         

*Based on courier estimate 20x20x20 (75) plus $25 repacking fee. Repacking fee means the courier will open the package delivered and they will get the items and put into 20x20x20 standard box without styro.

We have two options:

a) With repacking fee

Per item = $0.962

b) Without repacking

Per item = $1.11 Estimate
This is because they will ship the item as is. I'm sure the Disc Maker box is larger upon delivery.
The importance of repacking fee is to lessen the cost of delivery in our end. Dont know sa ibang courier tulad ng pobox because I am using different courier. Cguro mas mura.
