Thats what I was wondering, looks like the replacement jewel manufacturers are going to start doing some trade
I hope they make these replacement cases in Platinum with good shade matching...

GameCubeCase.com is affliated with PS2NFO/SCENE. Do not buy from them!
Also another reason to not buy from them is their quality of the cases in general. The PS2 cases they made are really cheap!
And don't forget you're paying $20+ for a simple top replacement. It's not a FULL CASE!
Wait a week or so and buy a FULL REPLACEMNT case in a variety of colors from Team Xtender.

The shades wont match 100%. You better buy an FULL CASE replacement if you want that to happen

Ill continue waiting. $20 is to much for just half a case, but all i want is half a case (black dol-001).
First team to make a black case top for a reasonable price ($10), that is close to the original top as can be, will get my buisness. Otherwise ill be fine with leaveing the top off to play full sized disc's.
Dont like how the case above is missing/covering up the power LED. And the shape of the lid just doesent look right. Not sure how, but i just feel it could look more like the lid on the original top.

i wish i lived in the states sometimes. in the UK I bet the lowest price we'll see relacement lids will be around $35 in USD and probably about $50 for a full case...we get ripped off. And if we import we just have to pay high shipping and import fee's, it's bad. But i know other countries are even worse, and I think it's crap sometimes.
i'd be grateful for a $20 lid, $10 would be a mirical I think!
as for not buying these cases, I agree, anyone affilated with ps2ownz doesn't get my business either.

<ding!> I knew something was missing from that pic and lo and behold it was the power LED. Agree wholeheartedly about the top looking weird though, something defintely looks off.

As for Team Xtender - Have you actually seen how horrible and nasty the finish is on that Xtender Xbox item? Cheap, nasty and looks like it was made by a 12 year old in school - plus the design could have been so much better if they had used a similar shape to the Xbox instead of the flat look. If thats an indicator of the quality of their workmanship then I'll just Dremel my case...
Either way its of no real importance because I'm waiting for that HD IDE mod to be released so I can really start chopping up my Cube

People think this case looks weird, but I think this is about the best looking design you could use while keeping the original nintendo design for the rest of the lid, look at where the buttons are located, the power button specifically, you could make a bigger lid that has a hole in it for the power button but I think that would look dumber.

Looks ok , but mini dvd-r.s are cheap enough so gonna stick with them for now + looks kinda odd , but think all are gonna look like that.
But I might pick up one at a later date as long as they aint to much as the mini dvd-rs are abit much for just expermenting with and wasting.

I dont know how case prices are nowadays in the states. I just know i used to sell PSX, DC, and N64 full cases for $20 back in the day. So i cant see myself paying anymore then $10 for half a case.
Ive been thinking. Arent those cases tops being sold with a gamebit? From what i remember from ps2losers news, the case tops come with a gamebit, and the price is $24.99. Wonder how much that gamebit is jacking up that price. If enough, then maybe they should have a deal without the gamebit. I can live with a bic pen and replacement screws as im sure others could.
Hopefully competition, and a package without a gamebit will drop the price down enough. Well when they atleast bring back the power led that is (i can live with the wierd looking lid). Untill then, whatever...

Are Team Xtender going to have solid colors as well? I want my cube to still look original. I have a black cube, but I've always wanted the purple, but I got mine on release day and couldn't complain about color at the time. Now I'd like it to have a black bottom and purple top. I think it would look pretty cool.
Also, does there's have an opening for the jewel? Thanks...
