Plastic CD cases - Free to a good home

For Sale/Wanted
Forum rules
Note that Tir Na HiFi does not take any responsibility for transactions arranged or carried out here. It is up to the seller and buyer to check each other out! Please be sensible folks, and if there is something you think is wrong, let a mod know, OK?

To make it as clear as we can, here are some simple guidelines:

a) like any forum, the success of tirnahifi is entirely dependent on discussion. All members are encouraged to participate in discussion of music, hifi, etc.
b) tirnahifi is not designed to be, nor intended to be, a marketplace. Any member who uses the site merely for selling will be looked on suspiciously.
c) those members who choose to sell on the site should be aware that the mods do keep an eye on the stuff for sale, plus the demeanour of the seller. Sometimes we may lock/delete/ban a sales thread on this basis.
d) honesty is paramount in all selling transactions. Commercial sellers who label themselves as such are accepted at the discretion of the moderating team.
e) All ads have to include information about age, price, provenance, etc.
f) THE MODERATING TEAM RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE ANY ADS AT THEIR DISCRETION.
g) Commercial sellers should approach any of the moderation team in advance of posting. First time commercial posts without moderator contact will be removed.

I would take as many as i could get.I would use them for replacing the broken cases of cds in charity shops here in Kerry that i help out in.

Apologies for not getting back to you earlier last week but was out of the country for a little while
We'll see can we arrange something, can you PM me of when you might be in Dublin between this and 21st May? I'll try and keep the undamaged ones for you if it can be arranged.

regards,

John

They might be ok. I think the main problem with those wallet sleeves I was using is that the discs could not "breathe" which probably accelerated the rot (I always had them zipped closed). A little bag of silica may have prevented it, but hindsight is the ultimate as many would agree!!! Hopefully your discs will be ok :-).

so hopefully I won't have the same issues as there is no part of the CD exposed to the air and I'm going to keep them in sealed plastic boxes (when I locate the correct size!).

Thanks for the feedback, none the less.

'The really useful box' company makes boxes in various sizes. Eason's sells them and so does B+Q (last time I looked)

I have used these clear plastic stacker boxes, available from Amazon UK, in the recent past https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00 ... UTF8&psc=1

Cheaper than the "Really Useful Box" version but, to be honest, not as well designed and a bit bulkier.
