Wheres the best place to buy a sealed case of the Forever 64. Does the case have all 12 of the release. Another Question. Has any one ever bought a case of Jammers from plano. I can't find them here, i'm thinking ordering from plano. 10.49 each @ 6 to a case plus 15.00 for shipping. Any thoughts....

As far as sealed cases go the best place is Milezones,Nickelcast,or Mini Motors.Jammers are inpossible to find in stores any more so direct from Plano is probably your only option unless someone here or on another site has any for sale.

I believe Jimi still has these jammer cases. I bought some from him for two dollars a piece. Look on the Johnny Lightning Site and look under the 2.00 sale and email him. You will thank me later.

I found that 3000toys is the cheapest for Sealed cases. That is where I ordered mine from

Does the case shipped so no one knows it is a box of j/l or is it shipped just like it came from the factory. Could someone open it and take some cars out and tape it back up.

I guess i'm just wondering about it being opened after it leaves the place i ordered from, while its being shipped to me.

Support your local demo derby.

I've bought sealed cases from Milezone and they came in the same box that that M2 mailed to Russ. I figure it's the same with JLs.

There is a thread stickied on the HW board about ordering Jammers, if you shop around and catch the sales, apparently they can still be had new from JoAnn's fabrics for $6 each. I haven't bought any, just repeating what was posted there.

I don't buy a lot of sealed cases, but the one I got from Milezones around Christmas was shipped in the JL factory case. The odd thing was, it looked like the factory seal had been broken and retaped, which alarmed me at first. I thought, no chance of a chase here. Imagine my surprise when I actually found a white. But if someone can explain the theory behind the shipping and factory sealed cases, I would certainly appreciate it. I thought a factory seal was not supposed to be cut open like that. Unless whites are randomely inserted after the case has been packed and sealed. But if that were the case, just look for a retaped job and you'd have a chase, which doesn't sound right but we're talking JL so who knows what crazy methods they might employ. Or maybe someone forgot to insert the whites and certain cases for the release had to be reopened. Anyone else get a resealed case with a white on R19

Well sometimes during shipping packages get busted open and we check them at Ups to make sure nothing is broke or missing and then re-tape them
