Hope I have this in the right place. I'd like to get some hard cases for my more valuable steels. They seem hard to get. A seller on Ebay Germany is selling them, but won't ship to Canada. but was unable to get any. Can anyone help?

Just got my SteelBookCentral sc2 through. Brilliant. Much better then the resealable bags.

Did they have two thumb holes or just the one?

Thanks King, arrived the other day but just got round to trying them this afternoon. I really like the SC3. The quality of the material is top notch and scuff free. I tried them with naked steelbooks - great, and with j-cards - great (albeit with a slight exposed overlap which I don't mind but can see how others wouldn't like it), overall though its just what I was looking for. The SCF1 has its own positives in that its fully enclosed, but I struggled with why I would choose it over the SC3 especially because I like the quick access the SC3 offers. Until I tried fitting the full slip lenticular kimchi Pianist release. Perfect!!!! It looks amazing inside the SCF1. So in conclusion my findings are, SCF1 for steel books with thick j-cards and the SC3 for everything else.

Hi Leo,

Thanks for your feedback. The SCF1 is very popular as some collectors prefer fully enclosed but I also understand that some collctors just want quicker access to there steels. The New SC3 design will be slightly bigger and should accommodate more steels that it does at the moment. What did you mean about the exposed overlap?

 

[KingSteelie]

How come SC1 costs more than SC2/3?

Hi,

SC1 is more expensive as it is not as popular as the rest of our slipcovers which means we order is less quantities. For example we may sell 5000 SC1 in 6 months compared to 50,000 SC2 in 6 months.

So tight your j card gets damaged? Certain ones are bit tight

Steelbooks like oblivion is very tight with the SC3

@KingSteelie Are the scf1 on their way?

 

[KingSteelie]

Has anyone designed a sleeve that can fit the steelbooks that come with a separate thick booklet like amelie or avatar extended or x men first class (france). It would be intermediate between a slim and a jumbo

Unlikely if anyone will produce a slipcover for them as there is not a big enough demand, as we would have to order a minimum of 5000

I wouldnt say defo anything as we are dealing with british manufacturing here lol. We have been let down more times then I can remember which is why all stock will be coming from abroad in a few months as they are cheaper, better quality and more reliable. They promised me that as they made a mistake they would make sure my order was done first and they have advised the 5th, I will be on there case Monday morning

Did they have two thumb holes or just the one?

2 thumb holes

 

[perchut]

Hi Guys,

I'll need some of these. Which one should I take for classic steels (zavvi) and steels with slip / lenti / etc... ?
Thanks in advance for your answers

 

[Flash]

@perchut I would suggest SCF1, they are larger and thicker for one with J cards, I find the others too tight for those type of ones.

 

[perchut]

Curently OOS. So I guess I'll have to wait ^^
Thanks

If you look further up in this thread they are supposed to be due on the 5th

 

[tnguyen13]

Do you guys know which one will fit on the thick fullslip steels like How to train your dragon lenti hdzeta? Or Perfume or Pianist kimchi?

 

[Arbsy]

What would works best for the Kimchi lenti and fullslip releases? Are there any hardshells thick enough to accommodate these editions?
