| | Posted: | | | | What I have seen in the past has varied alot.
My reasoning:
The digipak is in a Slip Cover, parent digipak gets Slip Cover.
The child is in the digipak, and because it is in the digipak does not get the Slip Cover. | | | Jim

| | Posted: | | | | Personal I don't think slip covers are covers, Slip covers are only the packaging and not the true cover. I have never agreed with the slip cover rule and I dont have a single slip cover in my database. I refuse to put trash such as slip covers in my database. This is just my opinion. |

I see where you're coming from but I disagree. In fact, I keep all of my slip covers unless it's too messed up (sticker residue, rips, etc). That's the collector in me, though. | | | | Last edited: by The Movieman |

I would have to think there are exceptions for you on that though... right Leo? I mean I seen several where the slip cover is plastic see thru... and half the cover image is on the slip cover... and half the cover image is on the inside keep case / digipak what have you. One in particular that I remember seeing just recently was season 1 of Bones. Me... like TheMovieman... I keep them all as long as they are in good shape. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | My personell opinion:
If it is a Slip Cover (One other case included): Scan of parent and child should be from Slip cover.
If it is a Slip Case (More than one other case included): Scan of parent should be from Slip Case. Scan of child should be from the cover of included case.
But this is just my personnel opinion. In one of the linked threads I had to let me disabuse. |

| | Posted: | | | | For me they have to be in really bad shape for me to get rid of them. There is a few I had tyo patch up with tape and such. The ones I had to get rid of were basically ones that my daughter got ahold of when she was a between 3-5yrs old. Wow she could destroy some stuff back then!  | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | Personally, I'm getting to the point where I'm about to dump all the packaging and just file the discs away in sleeves. The storage is just killing me. However, that's got nothing to do with how I would profile things. |

However, that's got nothing to do with how I would profile things. Agreed, but at the same time my OCD won't let me. It would be so much easier if the studios released it in thin sleeves instead. | | |  | | | | Last edited: by kosvines |

However, that's got nothing to do with how I would profile things. If you ever hit this point, please offer them to us before throwing out. I'm sure you have at least a few things I and others would need to replace damaged or missing covers. |

| | Posted: | | | | One day I was in the local Target and I noticed a cart full of slip covers. The clerk told me they throw them out and would be happy to give them to anyone who wanted them. I couldn't hurt to ask your local store to see if they do the same. |

| | Posted: | | | | I noticed that some DVD/BD are coming with plastic on the outside of the slip cover. | | | We don't need stinkin' IMDB's errors, we make our own.
