Kind of like how people HERE are with inserts!

And then, when everyone goes nuts and asks me where I got it, I'd tell them "Amazon."
You mean, like this?

So now you have at least three Inglorious Bastards, all the same content but just because there are three slipcovers

Actually, I only have one copy of Inglorious Bastards and three different slipcovers. I also have the UK version which has a very nice slipbox. :D

Yes that's correct. One of them is a bootleg. ;)

I ahve bought a dvd/blura just for the slipcover and returned the dvd/bluray and kept the slip.
Is that what you did?

Nope. That's too easy. LOL!! I buy slipcovers from members on different forums.

TLK- those look very nice with the price tags on them, especially ones that cover up the titles (SCRE?) I'll be sure to run out and look for them!

Re: these people are obsessed with slipcovers
 
So, do you buy extra empty blu-ray cases to put these on, since you said you only actually have one coy of the movie?

Good question.

100% photoshopped! The pricetags are just part of the fake artwork to give them a legit look. ;)

Yes, that's correct. Some members like to store away their slips. I like to keep my slips with my blu collection. The extra empty cases keep the slipcover in shape.

I don't have enough shelf space to do this. Had you visited me last summer, you would have seen first-hand why. :)

To add to the questions/discussion...the thing that's driving me nuts: Why do they appear to be in no particular order?

They look like they are in catalog numerical order to me.

Then my next question is:

How do you keep track of which one actually has the discs in it?

I'm sure it's kinda like me. I have over 2000 dvd/blus, and I keep them all alphabetized (except for my Criterions by spine), and I can easily tell almost exactly where anything is without really searching for it.

I still like the red cover myself the very best... that's what I've got. Pain in the ASS to take off the sticker though.
