Just a note to those who've been having trouble opening these cases, without breaking them. If you use an emory board to slightly sand the top knob which is holding the case together, you'll be able to open and close it ok. Don't sand too much, and just do the top knob, or it won't hold together. I like the fact that these cases are clear and fairly inexpensive, so I wanted to make them work. Hope it works for you.

It is difficult not to break them when first trying to open them. On the flip side once they have been opened once, they don't reclose very well.

The product itself I can't fault: these are your standard slim jewel cases. But sheesh, do a lot of them arrive broken. Truth is, I've never ordered cases from any supplier (Amazon, newegg, outpost, or wherever) that didn't arrive with at least 10% of the cases cracked or broken. They just don't ship well. If they seem like a good bargain, remember that you'll lose a good percentage of them. And even if the retailer will take them back, it's never worth the bother of returning them.

Add to that the shipping charge, and it starts to look like it makes more sense to buy these at your local office supply store where you can inspect them for breakage before you buy. That has been my experience, anyway.

I knew these were inexpensive CD cases, but I can't even open one without it breaking into two pieces...

Cheaper than thick CD cases and less prone to breakage, these "slim" cases by Memorex protect your CDs. Most buyers will get them for use in CD or DVD burning, and these are an affordable choice from a quality company for that purpose.

You may want to consider larger cases depending on your tastes, but otherwise these will probably satisfy your needs.

These clear jewel cases make it easy to see what you have and the slim design saves space. I use them for cd's and dvd's. I haven't had any problems with them; they are a good value.

The sender of this product packed the box individually and not in it's original wrapping. The order was 2 cases short and 2 more are broken.

cases very cheaply made. Break when opening. Not worth shipping cost waste of money.

The cases are fine but extremly fragile even if dropped on capet they break,so if you drop them on the floor or any hard surface forget it it's gone. I estimate about 20 to 30 % you may break. I don't see anything else better on the market so you just have to deal with it. "Oh I will buy this product again".

These are good jewel cases.

I have used a lot of them from this 50 pack to store DVDs in that I have burned movies on via my DVD set top recorder and they have served the purpose very well.

The only complaint about this item is that one of the jewel cases on one end was cracked when I opened the package.

Other than that I was satisfied overall with the jewel cases.
