Customer Review: Gets old DVDs looking brand new again
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a serious collector and like to keep my DVDs in pristine condition if at all possible, cases and artwork included. I usually try to buy most of my stuff brand new to ensure this (which admittedly can be an expensive habit), but some titles do go out of print, in which case I'll buy a used copy here on Amazon. A lot of sellers though seem to grade the disc only and not the whole package when describing a DVD's condition, which I find to be a faulty and unthorough practice. These Memorex replacement DVD cases are wonderful for that, for when you buy a used DVD with a case that is blemished and worn and therefore ugly from 5+ years of heavy handling and use. You just pop the disc, artwork sheet and/or inner insert page into one of these and voila! -- you've got something that looks brand new again. Or, as others here have previously offered, sometimes removing the label stickers from even brand new, just-bought DVDs can leave behind an unsightly sticky residue that takes away from the beauty of the whole thing. These cases come in very handy in times like that also. I'll add that the paper cover sheets of your DVDs are very easy to slip into the plastic windows on the front of these cases, so there is a great ease of use.
All in all, these cases can restore something that is old to looking brand new again. That's no small feat. Highly recommended to those as obsessed about the condition of their treasured DVD collection as I am.
Customer Review: Pretty gosh darn good cases
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased these cases for a collection I have of costly DVDs (YMAA Jwing-Ming series of martial arts seminar) The cases these DVDs came in weren't to my satisfaction...the release mechanisms were somewhat intractable and each time I removed the DVD from the case I would have to bend the DVDs pretty severely. These DVD cases solved my problem. These cases have about everything you'd want in a case: easy release mechanism, ability to slip the old cover into the new sleeve (so the DVDs still look official). There is one thing that I don't like, however. On the inside of the case is a plastic tab build into the crease. The purpose, I assume, is to press down on the DVD in order to keep it level after closing. Sometimes the tab slips under the DVD and that worries me a bit. Maybe they thought too much on that concept. I haven't cut the tab off as I am careful when closing the cases, but one could easily remove the tab, I think. So I took 1 star off. But they're good cases, don't hesitate to purchase them.Customer Review: Not bad for the price but could've been SLIGHTLY better.
Summary: 3 Stars
I had bought these as replacement cases since I grab used games often and happen to stumble on a few copies where it looks like the previous owner took a good hacking to it. So if anyone is like me I like to do what I can to make any little bit of it seem good as new. Hey it makes me feel better what can I say?
For a 10 Pack the price isn't that bad really, my only criticism on the product is when placing the disks inside it took a little more than necessary effort to make sure they stayed in. Also the clear slip for your labels seems shockingly fragile. I had one case easily rip just by putting it down and stacking others ontop of it.
In the end I just had to remember these are replacements and would never be as great as the original case that got damaged. It was just a pity though because Memorex always seemed like an okay brand.
Customer Review: Horrible
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this item along with the 10pk twin storage cases. Shame on me for thinking Memorex would be good quality. Cheap cheap cheap! Really thin plastice sleeve, really thin plastic altogether. The smell when I opened the package from Amazon was horrible! Smelled like burned oil. Just awful! Not to mention I'm not even sure if I have the new or old packaging because the packaging I recieved doesn't look anything like the packaging on Amazon's website. I will probably be throwing these away as soon as I find better ones. I've already opened the packages to see if it was Amazon's box that smelled or the actual cases so I'm sure I can't return them now so... $30+ wasted. Please don't waste your money on these.Customer Review: Decent, not great.
Summary: 3 Stars
These are decent but do not compare to the cases you get when you buy a professional DVD. The case itself seems flimsy but it might just be my imagination. The plastic film on the outside is loose and flimsy as well as not put on properly on a few cases. The push-release button locks the disc in place fine but doesn't release it too easily. You end up having to pry it off anyway so the push-release is redundant. Also seems like it will break after awhile.
Decent for home use but I would not recommend these if you're trying to use them in a professional setting.
