Anyone know of anywhere that sells game cases and manuals. I have Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for PS3 but I got it as a gift and it came in a gamestop case with no manual. Really sticks out on my shelf lol I searched ebay but the only case I can find is the game of the year edition

Sorry to tell you, but Ebay is the best place to do it. Nintendo's websites sells stuff like that for a very limited selection of games, but Microsoft/Sony probably don't have that. I imagine a flea market might be a decent place to find a manual. At my local flea market there is a place with a bunch of game manuals just lying around that a guy will sell for like 25 cents.

Like mypersona said, eBay is the place to go for cases. Every once in awhile I see an auction for a large lot of game cases; you might want to try to get in on one of those next time.

Try asking nicely a your local Blockbuster..you may be surprised.

At the one I work at, we have a crate full of cover art that isn't being used, and even more empty game cases...neither of which will ever be used. I've taken quite a few, as well given some to customers who have asked...my store manager was glad to see them go.

I Like Games.

If you just need cases, go to best buy. If you pre order a game they often come with the specific console case, like actual PS3 cases and green 360 cases. It costs nothing if you decide to either buy the game OR cancel your pre order. So go preorder 10 games and then cancel them all....

That should be very useful for people that want complete copies. I force myself to only buy complete copies of games cause i know it will come back to haunt me later to know one or two games dont have original manuals or cases.

My favorite feature of that site is that you don't have to buy EVERYTHING.

You just need the artwork?
You can buy just that.

Just need the manual?
They sell them separate too.

Or if you need both its there!
