New Line DVD Covers and Cases
#26
Since a lot of my movies are still sealed cuz I don't have time to watch them, that means that a lot of my snappers are still sealed. I keep most of my receipts too so I just take it back to the store and switch the snapper with a keepcase if I see it released at that store. I've done this with Austin Powers 1 & 2 and Friday.
I've seen Next Friday released in a keepcase at BestBuy, but not at Circuit City yet (where I bought it).
I've also yet to see Blade and the first Rush Hour in a keepcase yet.

Dabaomb, looks like you got a very lenient store that you could do the exchange. Some stores like BestBuy wouldn't do an exchange even if yours is still sealed, after the 30-day return/exchange period expires.

Plus most of those stores still sell stock of both snappers & keepcases

Future Shop here in Canada has quite a few amaray versions of their old snappers. I've know I've seen Blade, Austin Powers 1&2, Dumb and Dumber and Lost in Space in keepcases. There may have been others too.

If you buy used discs from Hollywood video they are always in keepcases. They get special editions without UPCs when the official release is a snapper. But they also lack inserts, so it is a toss-up.

Thanks for the Hollywood Video advice. Went there today and picked up Training Day, Welcome To Collinwood, Death To Smoochy, Insomnia, The Majestic and Ocean's Eleven. They had Harry Potter and Royal Tenenbaums but I wasn't sure if they were the 2-disc editions.
I could care less about the insert as long as I get the movie in a amaray case. To think of it, I don't think I've ever looked at an insert in my entire life with the intention of finding a certain scene.

Picked up both Harry Potter's from Hollywood Video. They look great. Also got Swordfish in a keepcase. I noticed they also have keepcases for The Color Purple instead of it's digipak counterpart. They also have E.T. with a actually title on it's side. Will have to try to find that one used somehow. I hate the E.T. digipak that's out now.
