I burn a LOT of CDs, both audio and data. Consequently I look for good prices on bulk jewel cases-- the slimmer ones since my storage space is approaching a limit. The price on the 50-pack of these cases is great, but there is a downside, which is that they are not as sturdy as the pricier, less brittle ones. The cases crack and break fairly easily-- sturdier ones will survive a short fall, not these babies-- and the hinges break off relatively easily. The problem might be the brittleness of the plastic, or perhaps the fit isn't perfect between front and back. My solution has been to buy the bulk for items I probably won't be accessing all that often, and the sturdier, more expensive ones for the discs I'm constantly pulling out, or that I'll be taking to a client or friend.
Comments about Staples 5mm Slim Jewel Cases, 50/Pack:
I make a lot of music and data CD's and DVD slide shows. Having an inexpensive jewel case to store them in so they don't get damaged is great. Although they are not as heavy duty as standard jewel cases they certainly serve the purpose that I use them for.For shipping purposed I would use the heavy duty jewel cases.
