Default Protecting Steelbooks

Hey guys, I'm wondering what do you all do with your steelbooks? How do you have them sitting on your shelves and do you guys use any plastic sleeves to protect your steelbooks from scratches? If so, what ones would you recommend? Thanks!

For any steelbook, I also use the plastic sleeves.

For games that I'm currently playing that come in steelbooks (ie no plastic case), I use a standard DVD case to hold the disc and then store the steelbook seperate.

This ^

It's the cheapest and easiest way. Pretty good at protecting them (unless you are dropping them or hitting them. No shock protection there)

They also have cases to keep games/steelbooks in that are made of hard plastic, but they are considerably more expensive when compared to the sleeves.

Yes, biggest mistake is to actually use the steelbook as your everyday case.

I actually try to buy plastic cases if possible lol

I'm using PET protectors like this: http://www.videogameboxprotectors.com/store/4569532134

More expensive but looks great - depending on how you store your steels ofc

I use those kind of slipcovers to protect my steelbooks.

You will find dvd-slipcovers under the second link, too.

Nice, they have poly bags for Nintendo Power mags too. Might have to make an order for those.
