181, a quick tip for damaged cases/artwork

You can find covers for a lot of your games at
CDcovers.cc

They also have dreamcast, PS1, ETC game covers for Jewel cases. I forgot to mention that:)

You can buy DVD cases/Jewel cases at Best Buy or anywhere that sells electronics. But , I buy mine in bulk from
Meritline.com

My printer is an HP officejet Pro 8500, but any decent photo printer will do. if you don't have one already, you can hit someplace like staples and pick one up for around $70 - $100 Max.

do you can resale the covers? because some people like to buy them even if they are a bit damaged

@hellmasterx

I only replace covers that are severely damaged and do not meet the standard for resale.

when I used this the pics came out too big- but i could subtely trim it down with no noticing.... oh yeah, And "gitaroo man" in particular comes out blurry (even in the front cover- I don't know why) However, I find that this site is useful especially since I sometimes will save a couple of buck by just buying the disc alone (ie: gitaroo man with instruction and case 45 without 27, Klonoa 60 without 24)

@sayastra

There are programs you can use that will make them fit perfectly. I use a program called "Expressit"  :)

[GamerBarney]

how do you use expressit whenever i get a covers from cdcovers,cc on expressit it dosent set it in the template right



[L1Games]

@GamerBarney

you stretch the picture to fit.

@TheVaz2108

Thats kind of a foolish statement. You cant buy original cases for games that are out of print. Where on earth am I going to find a War of the monsters insert? LOL

when a game comes in with No case or badly damaged case, the best thing to do it print a new cover for it. I could do what gamestop does (Cheap generic case) but I prefer to get it as close to original as possible.

it's the extra step I'm willing to take for my clientele.

@bendermeister

these are the games that the covers are too damaged for resale. I wont put trashed game covers all over my walls. looks terrible and people don't want to buy them. I figure this is a far cry better than using the cheap Generic covers Gamestop uses.

@L1Games lol wheres your store at

[sayastra]

@L1Games either way this has been a very useful tip! Thank you kindly!

I man I saw your video about covers but when I was looking for genesis and saturn covers It didn't have any cover for those two systems do you know another place where I can find covers for them. I have a couple of games which need or didn't had covers at the time that I bought them. Keep the good work showing us how to clean and keeping our consoles running.

[FloridaxGators1]

Wow... im watching your videos and I can see that you clearly care about the customers and the quality of the products your selling... Wow... Great Job!

[sayastra]

@L1Games but they do have a better upload of gitaroo man now.

[sayastra]

@L1Games thx- I just trim them down and you can't really tell the different with they get into the case.
