WHY NO JEWEL CASE? The short answer is, to save you money. The
least expensive way to mail a CD with a jewel case is Media Mail, which
costs $3.65 for anything under 1 pound.
Jewel cases are also fragile and require extra packaging to avoid cracking
when handled by postal workers. All of those costs are passed along to you.
Did you know you can order a box of 24 brand new standard jewel cases
from Staples for about $12?
