That is funny as I have the VCD's of 2001. The 3 VCD's came in a 4 CD jewel case. It is unusual that VCD's would come in jewel cases since they are suppose to be very cheaply made. I forgot to mention that the VCD's were made by Warner Bros.

?I have never seen a VCD that didn't come in a jewel case?

Two or more jewel cased CDs costs at least £2.90 2nd class to post. Reduce the size and you can send several for just £1.22. If you do not mind me asking did many people did go for for the cheaper post cost option? Perhaps just me but I would like to receive the item as it was issued (or as close as possible) & would rather pay the £ or 2 extra in postage. Cheers, John
