As title says, 288 cd nylon binder for $5.99 @ Computer Geeks/Geeks.com ...Shipping (standard ground) shows up for me as $6 for 1, $7 for 2 or 3 (didn't try any higher)..And of course for those of us lucky enough to live in CA, there's sales tax on top of that. Still - even w/ shipping/tax, it's a good price for a big binder.

[edit] $19.91 shipped for 2. Still less expensive (I think) than a single of similar size @ a B&M worstbuy - Hopefully they're not pieces of junk that fall apart right away :D .

8.78 6 month/7.23 lifetime/7.79 customer service on resellerratings.

There's also a promo code I got via dealnews.com - 10% off, but it may/may not apply here -- code: DEALNEWS
"Note: Not valid with AMEX or Discover card purchases or on items marked as "GEEK Special!""

 
i've had 2 of these for over a year. they're definitely worth the $16 shipped total I paid.

it's usually not worth it to buy only 1 or 2 relatively heavy low priced items from geeks because of the shipping. cables, screws and other light items don't add to the shipping and are worth grabbing to bring the net shipping per item cost down.
 
i have some just like it if not the same one, they are decent. but the carrying handles are not that strong so use the strap or hold it when moving it. they are not the best, but not the worst either. it its gonna stay in one spot mainly they are fine. also keep them facing with the disks flat or up and they slide in the sleeves sometimes.

I have two -- filling both sides of the page with CDs/DVDs helps that problem a bit, but also hooking the little flap of plastic at the top of each CD pocket helps prevent them from sliding out.

Like others said, not the best, but definitely not the worst -- I like 'em.
 
price went up to $10 it seems... :(

i've been looking for one of these, if anybody knows of any good alternatives let me know.

Save the earth a bit and flip a bird at the man.. Stop buying plastic crap and buy hemp products. Stupid meaningless products that store worthless consumer based items should only be stored in objects that help the world at some minor level.
Try moving up a level and stop buying cheap asian crap at the lowest possable price.

I wonder how the asian plastics market is these days?

Holy threadcrapping batman . . .

Find me a hemp-based binder of the same size for the same price, and I'll buy it.

Holy shit hippy, mellow out and go hug a tree.
 
Just got one, $12.50 shipped in CA is better than anything else I've seen recently.
 
That's sucks - up to $10 - guess I ordered @ the right time :D .. Just checked the site - looks like I should be getting them tomorrow (errr today), along with my Apex Ultra kit from jab-tech..Now I'm just waiting on my Monarch order - shipped today, probably won't get until @ least Monday. ((( Went a bit OT there didn't I? ;))))

I know the shipping is a bit much, but I kinda figured 576 cd's worth of storage would be enough for me. Not to mention, you seem to get the decreasing shipping per unit effect as you go up (only checked up to 2 tho - good idea if you know someone that wants to go in on the [DEAD ATM...] deal.And like I said b4, still quite a bit cheaper for the 240ish size ones at your usual B&M retailer. I did see a similar deal (for a 240 case) @ a local Sav-On recently..$9 - none of that waiting for shipping stuff..Alas, I didn't get any then.

@previous post - heh DAMN - I'd imagine with 520 discs of storage you have your very own weight lifting device there! At least w/ the 2x288s you could carry 1 in each hand.

 
Even at $10 its still a good deal. Still way cheaper than best buy or any other retail place
