 :pray: Please, oh please let these all pan out.  I sooooo wanna buy some new cases.  Thank you so much for doing this.

Side Note:  This whole process has me completely intrigued.  I'd be very interested in working with you for a replacement gear for the TG-CD.

On another note: I still have not decided what to do about the lids.  I have come to the conclusion that the thicker old style lids are just not made anymore.  I have found decent quality thinner lids but obviously they are not free.  Would people prefer to purchase just the back case and clip or would you rather buy a complete case with a modern, thinner lid?

I think people will be just happy with the trays, the lids are not that important, but great work can't wait for this!!

I agree with this.  Lids, while not as common place, are still available.  The trays and clips are impossible to buy, and the only way to replace one is to bastardize another game.

I also agree.  I have plenty of CD jewel cases laying around.  I just need the turbob trays.

Another vote for "HuCARD tray" as the most important item.

Assume folks want tray-only...you can always offer lids later, if there is a demand.

Lookin' sweet!  If you can buy the lids in bulk at a discount, it might not be a bad idea to offer 'em (at least as an option); I'd rather give you the bit extra over bulk pricing than some joe blow.

The difference in price between buying 50 empty jewel cases and buying 5000 empty jewel cases is very small.  I might buy some just to have them available but I think I'll just stick to the case and clip.  I will also be selling the clips separately for those that have cases with broken clips.  This morning I got a chance to check my model and found no errors.  The problem with the printed part was from the printing company, not me.

The back cases are just fine, do not worry about the lids.

I agree with Necromancer.  If the cost is pretty small, go ahead and get lids.
