miniDV cases

[Guest LondonFilmMan]

Does anyone have any ideas as to how I might store 300 miniDV tapes? Are there any bag or cases available? Also, I am seeking to buy 300 new miniDV casette cases. You know, the plastic ones that come with a new miniDV tape when you buy it. Any decent ideas?

You might look at:

to see plastic cases that each hold 9 miniDV tapes and fit on a shelf like a book. Since it has a separate compartment for each tape and the whole thing seals & latches quite well you might not need the individual little boxes. If you buy several at a time it is less than $1 a tape. They also carry another thing that holds 50 tapes, but there is just a spot to slide each tape in and no cover so you would really need the individual boxes also (I don't know where to get those).
