Default Re: PC Game Big Box Protector, where??

if you can't find any polybags there's always the option to put your precious in acrylic display cases.

They also ship outside the US. Most of my polybags are from there.

Just tried it.. Cost 33.21 dollars just for 1.. And think that is without shipping..
That price I think I would be able to make some myself much cheaper.. :p

Maybe you can find a local shop? I know one here in Germany and I just checked their prices...A box for the size you mentioned above costs around 35 euro. But shipping is of course way cheaper.

In Chris's thread on the subject I suggested polybags if you're okay with the presentation not being absolutely perfect

I've found something like these might work

It's a little hard to figure out what will box shaped items will actually fit into what size so it usually does well to get multiple different sizes

I would actually recommend getting ones larger than 10" by 13" or at least wider than 10"
In essence you're basically putting a box into something a box isn't supposed to go into but it works well enough. Just have to fold over excess plastic and tape it. I use invisible gift wrapping tape to do so
